What's the temperature in hiawassee georgia

Hello all,
My question is mainly for HRs but anyone can chime in. Why are salaries so low in Toronto when compared to similar cities around the world and to Toronto's high cost of living? What can be done to improve the situation?
For example, I work for an American company and I know salary bands in Toronto are even lower than in Houston, which is absolutely crazy. Having lived in Houston, cost of living is half of that in Toronto. You can buy almost a mansion in Houston suburbs for ~$600-700K.
I feel so bad because I know some of the best employees in my company are from Canada and they work more or equally as hard. There is definitely benefit of less work stress than in US but nothing more than that. Vacation days and all other perks are same. We also don't get higher vacation days like Europe as a tradeoff. My manager was kind enough to even take my salary rise request to CFO but it was turned down citing I am already getting better than market range in Toronto.
Do you all think this situation will improve given the ever increasing real estate cost in the city? It's hard to believe home prices are still going up when bank interest rates are more than 5-6%.
P.S: I am still way more happy than I was in Houston. I feel Toronto is way better city (better infrastructure, people, weather, activities, food, less crime, and most important - natural beauty).

Should I(23F) break up with my boyfriend(22M)
I apologize if this will get extensive but I'm at my wits end about this for so long and need advice on how to proceed with this relationship.
I, (23F) have been thinking of breaking up with my boyfriend (22M) for a while now. I've been together with him for nearly 3 years now with most of our relationship being during covid so I barely really met up with him.
I have a full time job that takes up most of my time while my boyfriend has a part time job and full time college that takes up most of his time. I thought it was normal that me and my boyfriend only get to meet up once a week(if I'm lucky) but then when he canceled on me this week and I have to wait until next week again to see him I realize that maybe this isn't normal. Then my girl friends tell me that they hit them up frequently asking to hang out or just calling them. At first I didn't see it as a bad thing because my girl friends have significant others and are his friend so I was fine with it. But when he canceled on me this week it really hurt my feelings. It's not the first time he's done it I remember in the month of April he was canceling on me week after week but I let it pass because school must have kept him busy.
Then one time when I went to hang out with him and his friends he practically ignored me the entire time and stuck close to his other friends even going as far as to call his other friends(girls) and asked to come over their houses after to do his nails. At that point I talked with him and told him it feels like I'm not much of a priority and that I felt weird about him hanging out so much with his friends over me. He then said that he left me alone because he wanted me to spend time with his friends since I haven't seen them in so long. I actually proposed to break up with him but he then told me he loves me and he doesn't want to end things so I stayed because I believed him. And he told me he will do better. But I asked my friends and just this week he's hit them up even after he told me he'll come over when he gets let out early at school.
I have such big insecurity issues and i excuse most of his behavior to me being good enough for him and not being pretty enough. But Recently he's gotten this weird obsession over this one streamer who's a male that dresses up like a female. It's really convincing too and when he first showed him to me I was weirded out. Especially when he keeps watch of his Instagram and even considered joining his only fans. I don't know how to feel about it because it feels like I'm just an insecure jealous girlfriend if I ever bring up how weird his little obsession with him is. He even puts this guy as his pfp on his social media's and he's rarely done it for me. Should I be concerned that he looks nothing like me? And is actually the complete opposite?
When I first brought up feeling like I'm not being prioritized over his friends and asking him to take me out on more dates he took me on our second proper date since the first year we've dated. I've always excused him being unable to take me on proper dinner dates to him being quite broke but I'm not asking for much. Im so easy to please even just coming over to see me is more than enough but recently it feels like he doesnt even care enough to do that for me. I'd like to see him for at least more than 4 times a month is that too much to ask for?
It feels like he's just keeping me as his girlfriend because he wants a girlfriend it doesn't necessarily have to be me.Everytime he cancels on me I'm reminded I don't matter to him and even though he's not busy I'm only there for convenience and he won't make time for me.I think he truly doesn't love me. His words sometimes feel so empty and sometimes he doesn't truly listen to me when I talk to him. I'm so tired of this of everything. But I still love him so much even with how he's treating me. Please help me. My friends tell me to stay with him and to give him another chance to just communicate with him. But I don't know for how long I have to communicate with him to get the bare minimum from him. And is this all worth it? I really want to end things because I became this insecure person that I've come to hate so much when I'm with him.
I don't know what to do.. please help :(

Last week in my country another pregnant woman died in hospital, because she had not received medical intervention. She was admitted with premature rupture of amniotic membranes and almost no amniotic fluid at 20 weeks. In every normal country this is a legitimate reason to terminate or induce. But the fetus still had a heartbeat, so understandably, this would be murder. Of course... There is no information if and what kind of treatment she received after the fetus had finally died, but anyway, he developed sepsis and died.
Everybody is blaming the doctors - but this is exactly what the governing party wants - for the sheeple to think that doctors are to blame, and not the law, according to which an unnecessary abortion would have more severe legal consequences, than letting an adult woman die, because of not receiving medical intervention.
Agata (dead at 25). Izabela (died at 30). Agnieszka (dead at 37). And now Dorota - died at 33. These are the four cases that made it to the media. How many else there were - I don't know.

I'm a Swain main, I also play Viktor and Malzahar a lot. I'm currently in gold and I struggle with identifying my champion's identity or game plan.
I know with Malzahar you basically shove and roam when you have R and in mid game you can sidelane if you don't have R. I know this is simple but I'm low elo so I want some repeatable game plan so I can work on consistency which I think is my biggest problem.
But with Swain and Viktor I'm a bit more confused. Most guides I've seen don't actually explain it that well. With Viktor I usually just farm until I can run over the whole enemy team but sometimes this doesn't work if I don't create any pressure on the map.
And with Swain I struggle the most even though he's my main. I kind of see him as a stat check champ so I want to farm a lot but if I sidelane I miss teamfights. In early game I don't know if I'm supposed to shove and roam or try to stay in lane.
​
Are there any reliable sources where I can learn about his kind of stuff? Also for other champions because I like playing different champs in normals but I never know what to do on them.

Just wondering what kind of glue would be best for mounting insect specimens in shadowboxes. I’ve seen a lot of mixed opinions on hot glue, super glue, and silicone glues. I’m trying to mount some of my collection and make one as a gift, so I’m trying to find the best option, especially if the gift one needs shipped (I’m a bit worried about breakage).

Hello, does anyone know what's the earliest slot currently for simulator booking? I just passed BTT and have yet to go through my practical lessons so Im unable to check. Reason Im asking is because I want to gauge how long I have to wait for simulator, I have a break in august and want to speed run my practical lessons and hopefully get my licence in 2 months.
Is this possible? thanks!

England -
Husband had jury duty last week.(Starting Monday)
Tool Station did not provide the letter they required until Friday though were asked a month ago
Jury Duty started on Monday but was sent home both days went in & told not to come back until Tuesday (tomorrow).
When husband picked letter up from his branch of tool station that he works at on Friday, the letter stated, if not needed for service, he could work
However, this is not true as the rota was done weeks ago and he was not put down for any shifts and his rota stated jury service.
What can he do?

oof where to start.
so my bf (19M) is the sweetest most caring and best person in my life. he’s always there for me, and so have i. he taught me that healthy love exists, and we understand each other on such a deep level we’ve both never experienced before. we’ve been together for 8 months now. i’m at my happiest with him.
the issue is, my mental health has been bad lately. i don’t really know the reason, my therapist says it’s my anxiety. it’s causing me to overthink everything in life (what is love, why did i fall for him and not anyone else, what’s the difference between all types of love…) and existential crises n whatnot. this is causing me some issues: 1. i cant have fun in general (not just with him, but with everyone) 2. this is causing me to not be able to handle time away from him. i think this comes from lingering past relationship trauma, so in order to protect myself i just think about the worse case scenario, and lowkey convince myself it’s true. self sabotage at its finest. 3. i feel this stressful anxious feeling in my throat and stomach when i have these thoughts. it’s annoying. 4. when i have fun without him (with friends, family…) i feel some sort of guilt and start to overthink if we have to break up since i’m having fun without him.
Note that this all happens when i spent time away from him: we were used to seeing each other every day at uni. so when i don’t see him for a while, i overthink. i rly cant help it.
i’ve talked to him abt that ofc. he’s been there for me through it all (i feel guilty abt that tho). at some point i even convinced myself in my head that we were gonna break up. it affected me very badly, and it affected both of us when we talked abt it.
since then, i worked on myself a lot because i love him and we both don’t wanna end things. and it really worked out great. but sometimes, this overthinking comes back.
i wanna work on myself for the sake of both of us. we did talk about breakup, but we both realized we don’t want to (before u say anything like “u should breakup” or something, u don’t know our whole story and breakup isn’t what we want. he had his moments, and now i’m having mine. it’s normal.)
i want to confront myself for my sake AND for his sake. i’m tired of being weak and of overthinking everything.

This is the first time I combine Quests from ROTWL because the next missions in line are very simple.
- The worthy ideas in The Silent Passages are the Death Mist and the tomb that returns ruined equipment. Both these ideas were kept in the revision I made (although the Death Mist got renamed to Bellthor gas).
- The worthy ideas in The Halls of Vision are the doors that open when you beat a Mummy and the keys that prevent the Mummies from attacking. Both these ideas were kept in the revision I made.
- The Gate of Bellthor is a troll Quest, since it’s unbeatable. You are meant to lose no matter what. I changed that detail to ‘defeated heroes in this Quest are automatically teleported away and become prisoners of the Witch Lord.’ Basically, you can defeat Bellthor and escape the dungeon, but there needs to be at least 1 hero who gets captured. Since the Bellthor gas hits Mind Points, the odds of the Barbarian losing in this Quest are high.
Proposed map:
​
The quest is now beatable
Red numbers: The monsters in this room are magical guardians. When they are all defeated, the door with the same number unlocks.
Blue numbers: The door is magically shut. It will open only when the magical guardians with the same number as it are defeated.
X: All corridors are filled with Bellthor gas. A hero who ends his turn in them rolls a Combat die. If he rolls a Skull, he loses1 Mind Point.
A: Turning the lever fills the room with Bellthor gas. Every hero in the room loses 1 Mind Point.
B: Turning the lever opens an air duct that clears the outer north and outer west corridors of Bellthor gas.
C: Turning the lever opens an air duct that clears the inner west corridor of Bellthor gas.
D: Turning the lever opens an air duct that clears the outer south corridor of Bellthor gas.
E: There is a metallic beak-shaped full-helmet on the table. A filter clears the air as it passes through the beak. The hero who wears it on his head gains 1 Defense die and becomes immune to the effects of gas traps.
F: You find King Agrain’s magical copper key. Skeletons will ignore the hero who carries it until they are attacked.
G: These magical circles teleport anyone stepping on them between the two locations (notice that the doors are initially locked on the east room).
H: Inside the tomb the heroes will find up to 1 helmet, 1 mail, and 1 weapon that was destroyed during the previous Quest. If no equipment was lost that way, the tomb is empty.
I: You find King Agrain’s magical silver key. Zombies will ignore the hero who carries it until they are attacked.
J: You find King Agrain’s magical gold key. Mummies will ignore the hero who carries it until they are attacked.
K: The east door is fake and does not open.
L: Opening the chest fills the room with Bellthor gas. Every hero in the room loses 1 Mind Point.
M: This is Bellthor. The same rules apply as in the original Quest, with the only difference being he doesn’t knock everyone out when he dies.

I’ve been feeling anxious as of late. Perhaps it may be because I feel as thought I cannot do anything or that I am incapable of doing things. That i can’t live up to the standards I subject myself to. I am in a place where it feels as though i have no purpose yet theres also a drowning list of things to do. Thinking about attempting this list consumes me and also discourages me from actually trying. I’m lost. I’m 22 turning 23 and it feels as though I’m a failure with no actual achievements that are valid. I’m always in a constant state of feeling suffocated by family matters yet also useless at dealing with my own. I question whether family is just a crutch for my poor effort in making a life of my own. I dont know what I want or where I want to be. Thus I chase after the security of money, what I can buy with my own will. Looking at my peers it seems as though i’m on a timeline, haven’t started my Masters and dont have enough money for a home deposit. Not pretty enough or skinny enough. Sounds like first world problems but I can’t help but wonder why am I even here.
I have even found a person whom I love dearly yet always question whether they actually love me back. Or if i’m deserving of their love and care. I don’t think i’m enough and I can’t pinpoint where this stems from. Why can’t I be enough for myself to be proud of. I know I am insecure. This constant battle of feeling like a failure and self sabotaging is something i’m trying to overcome. Self sabotaging in the sense where I put less effort in intentionally or sub consciously because i’m already aware of a disappointing outcome.
I’ve broken my ankle recently and being home has furthermore given me time to settle into how I feel. I have no way of physically escaping what pulls me into feeling this way. Its been pointed out to me that I am anxiously attached. This I really despise about myself, that I can’t be content with being alone and not overthinking or overcompensating things in my relationship. Its a grappling mindset that I must do extra things to keep my partner interested in me when I know logically he loves me for what I am. Its just a deep pit in my stomach that keeps telling me I’m not good enough for them. Im an over thinker where alone time makes me think i’m unwanted and this really crushes my heart. I jump from conclusion to conclusion and memories from past experiences cloud my perspective.
I’m losing my will to always be there for my family, i’m a failure in my own story, i lack substance in the sense that I’m not happy alone. I’m always seeking validation from my partner. I also feel like i’m chasing the number 23. Theres this strong idea that I should have my life sorted or at least plan heading towards my mid 20s.
All my feelings could boil down to just an existential crisis or a negative outlook on life. But its truly hard to escape doubts and thoughts of my purpose here on earth. Whether I deserve it or actually should even be here.
I hope I can be better.

So this happened today, so i am a late sleeper i sleep at 3,4 am most of the day cause school is closed and i use my phone, exercise or do some research, so it was like 3:6am and i decided to sleep i turned off the light and layed down i started to hear noices like a women crying and a sound like hmmmmmmm mmmmmmm and a heard a man's voice it was not talking but like of zombies or casting a spells something like that so i frantically got up and turned on the lights and could still hear the noise and i thought it was the fan so i turned off the fan and could still hear these two noices i wasn't scared cause i beloved in God so i started to pray to jesus ( i don't take substances and it's the first time something like this happening this to me ) so as i started praying the man's voice became deeper and it was gone and the women's voice stayed there for like 4:25 am i was on my phone at time praying and looking at my phone and as i decided to take the Bible and read some verses it voice was suddenly gone and i said find some peace and begone from my house and i put my phone away decided to sleep there was no voice while i was sleeping and i wake up at 11;38 am and everything was fine. My mental , physical and emotional health is fine no stress no issues whatsoever so don't say it was because of that. So what do u think 🤔.

I recorded audio of the Boston show but had some SD memory card issues that forced me to miss half of "My Hero" and all of "All My Life".
I'm hoping someone else recorded it and would allow me to splice in what I missed to complete my recording. If you're that person please let me know.
I'm also looking for high quality videos of these 2 songs as a back up option should a full recording not surface.

Do not read unless you have completed all major endings of the Nier games.
Hey all, I wanted to touch on my opinion of the Nier games. They are in my top 5 game franchises, and the only one in that list that I didn't play as a teenager.
I have received some feedback on my opinions of characters in the games. And that is cool, I love how the game makes you think about morality. My summary of the reason I don't sympathize or see the characters as good guys is below.
The only character I felt bad for was Emil. All the rest of them partially caused their own problems and some are arguably the bad guys. (And yes, I like them, but I don't see them as tragic. 2B betrayed her one friend knowingly and repeatedly. And once she felt guilty, she still covered things up on him and acted accordingly. 9s snapped and tried to kill all machines, knowing they were concious and most were innocent. A2 had severe ptsd and voluntarily murdered what she saw as a baby robot she knew had conciousness, and also was on a killing spree like 9s. Nier voluntarily used a book that sucked blood from hundreds of foes he hunted down, to try to save his sister. Of all the other characters, he is closest to being tragic, were it not for his sister actively trying to tell him she accepts her situation and just wants to see him, which he selfishly ignores because he decides he knows what is best for her. Kainé felt judged, feared and ostricized by people who didn't understand her, then actively hunted down and murdered shades, because she didn't understand them and judged them.) Did most of them think they were the good guys? Yes. Did most of them try to do what they felt was right? Yes. Did most of them commit evil by accident? Yes. The road to h*ll is paved with good intentions and lack of self reflection, though. 9s is my favorite character, and I find him most relatable, but he earned his fate.
The reason I loved these games, is because that is my interpretation. I loved that the game made me feel for characters I felt were not good guys, because they were grey and had many redeeming qualities. They felt more human than most actual human portrayals in other games (yes, a few were human, but you get my point). The game spoke to humanity, or lack there of, without coming off as condescending or coming down on one side or the other on issues. It was close to art in how it focused on reminding you that everyone is a hero in their own story, but a villain in another's. The themes of blind faith and loyalty and how it can topple even the people with the highest morals was commendable. It shows how PTSD and fear can corrupt, without being noticed. It showed how people can push through guilt, and second thoughts, through sheer will and belief that what they are doing is right. I loved this stuff. I loved that these characters were not good, they WANTED to be good. That is so human. People generally aren't heroes or villains, they are flawed, mislead, blind, angry, sad, damaged, and weak. They are also strong, driven, loyal, trusting, committed and unfaltering in a desire to make progress in things they care about.
The bleakness of the endings, in my opinion earned, is also a touch of genius. The real world is dark. It is irredeemable. It is unsaveable. But we have to try. Of course we do. That is how making a future works. We only delay the inevitable, but we have to do that for future generations. Extinction is a reality, not a threat, and I fully believe humanity would stoop to what they do in the games, to survive. Of course we would. And machines, androids, and shades would do the same. It is how the world works.
But ya, this is meant to be abit of an apology, I unintentionally antagonized a few people with my opinion. I was also abit dismissive of theirs. So, here is my redemption arc, I wanted to open a thread and see what everyone else thinks. Are the characters in Nier heroes? Anti heroes? Vigilanties? Villains? Criminals? Why? What do you think the main themes and intents of the creators were? Hop on and chat below. I'd love to see it!

Seems like it belongs in a museum. I was looking for what happened to the black and white suit when I found this

Every season, as I start peaking.. my game decides I am not touching my joystick, or makes me aim the opposite direction for dozens of games.. or makes me feel super delayed and I cannot accurately make shots.. like I had been in the previous dozens of games
It always happens as I'm peaking... What is funny, I have played with the smallest joystick size locked..and never experienced this.. but I also wasn't peaking..
I have complained about this every season that I started playing, and it never happens until I'm almost at the highest rank I've ever been.
I always give up and quit for a few weeks when it happens..
Does this happen to anyone else?

I have a profitec pro 500 and niche zero grinder. I love my machine but after a year of using it I have determined how I prefer my espresso and the process and I am in search of the perfect machine for me. I want a machine with super fast heat up times. The automatic on off functions or timers don’t work for me because we drink coffee at random times of the day so I want something I can turn on and have ready quickly whenever I decide I want a coffee. I want something with more precise temperature control. And I need a machine that can steam a lot of milk. I went with a heat exchanger initially because we use lots of milk in all our drinks. Now I am looking for something more precise, with fast heat up and good milk steaming capabilities. Any recommendations?

CW: mentions of self-harm
Hello, I am part of a group conducting a study for our Psychology Masters at the University of Edinburgh. The study aims to explore experiences of self-harm and service provision amongst adult autistic women in recovery. I am an autistic person and I have helped design the aims and methods of this study. I am helping to monitor the safety standards of this study, however, there are (not to my knowledge) any autistics / NDs on the external monitoring team. Only myself and my research team will be involved in analysis. We have been offered assistance with debrief space by the Scottish Women's Autistic Network (SWAN). There is no compensation for this study. Our supervisor has previously worked in / published autism research. (Here is a link to her previous publications https://www.ed.ac.uk/profile/dr-ewelina-rydzewska ).

I’m about to fly for the first time in 12 years and I have no idea what to expect. I’ve heard horror stories about trying to get through TSA and it seems near impossible not to get outed getting through the airport. What do I do? Does anyone have any experience with this/ know how I should handle it to not have to out myself?
For context (if it matters): I am 18, 6 months on T with legal documents changed, pre op top and bottom surgery
