You wake up in a dark room. There is a door to your left, a door to your right, and a chest.

 You found a wooden sword. You equip it. It smells moldy and low damagey.
You walk through the left door, and into a cavernous room with columns as wide as a large man.

There's also a large man, in a cloak. "Who goes there??" He asks

You say:
"It's just me, chill yo" you say and do a deuce sign with your hand.

"Oh shit I couldn't tell, it's so dark and cinematic in here" he replies. He offers up a chalice.

"I'm Tim, you must be the player character. Wanna drink some magic juice?" he asks.
You chug-a-lug the dragon jizz or whatever the fuck, leaving none for Tim.

"Damn boy you are thirsty lol" says Tim, laughing out loud. "Turn that cup over for a surprise"

You turn it over and notice the base has three buttons that let you choose the magic power you get.
"I CHOOSE INVISIBILITY!" you shout, startling Tim. You then remember it's button-based, so you press the button, ashamed.

Tim says "You just press the button. You don't yell the power out loud." He sounds disappointed.

You respond:
You turn invisible. Tim stares awkwardly for a minute, then sits down like a shitty Skyrim character and puts on a shirt that says "you can't interact with me anymore"

There is another door to the left labeled KEEP OUT.
"You good Tim?"

Tim weeps, for he has run out of dialogue options.
"I'm sorry, Tim. I'm sorry I didn't say the right things, to keep you talking. I wish I could go back, and perhaps befriend you, but I chose the wrong things to say and now you are silent and sad. I hope you one day forgive me, Tim"

Tim de-spawns in front of you. He is gone.
You go left through the door labeled KEEP OUT, and enter a hallway lit with candles.

10 feet ahead of you, a goblin with a spear jabs at the air angrily. "Who the fuck opened the door that says KEEP OUT??"

You remember that you are still invisible.

You reply
After a close 3-way vote inside your brain, you sneak past the goblin.

The goblin spends the rest of his life questioning his sanity and drinking a lot (and goblins live a thousand years so it's even more fucked up)

At the end of the hall you find two doors, one green, one red.
You try to enter the green door but it's actually not real, it's a painting of a door on the wall probably designed to trick you into running into it or something. These halls are truly cursed.
You open the red door, and start to enter the room until you realize it's not a room but the opening to a huge cavern full of fiery chasms and spikes and shit.

Your invisibility turns off because you ran out of mana I guess

Paths to the left and right, a rope drops into a pit.
You slide down the rope and suffer severe friction burns, because I forgot to mention you've been naked this whole time.

Your health is now low, and what's worse, unmistakable boss fight music starts to play!

The rope falls down behind you.

There is thick fog ahead of you.
You cry for 3 hours which is understandable.

You are about to do more crying when an apparition appears. It's Tim! He floats in front of you.

"It's me, Tim Cruise"

"I knew it was you, but I didn't know your whole name."

"Yeah. Sorry to interrupt the crying."

You reply:
"I wasn't crying" you reply, "my eyeballs have a rare disease and they just do that sometimes"

"Wow that sucks" says Tim. He pulls out a potion. "Perhaps this health potion will help your shitty leaky eyeballs".

He hands it to you and you drink it, restoring your HP.

You say:
"How do I beat the boss?"

"The boss is a big dragon, you have to hit him with your sword a bunch. Also your armor level is zero, let's get you fixed up"

Tim removes his cloak and underwear and puts them on you.

Tim quietly says "btw it's OK to cry sometimes" and flies away.
You add the rope to your inventory, and move forward into the fog.

The boss fight music grows ever louder, and now there's some cool drums intermixed too. You must be getting close.

You start to think about your life, in particular the time you
You reflect on seeing Tim disrobe in front of you. The kindness in his eyes, as he took off his tighty whities and put them on you, still warm.

Tim Cruise, your only friend. Is he up there watching over you? Is he dead? Who knows?

You exit the fog and see a dragon, asleep.
You quickly move to tie up the dragon, but only have enough rope to tie its feet together. The dragon wakes up with a mighty roar and his mouth smells like garbage so you puke all over the ground.

"WHO DARES AWAKE THE FINAL BOSS DRAGON?" he bellows. The music is really cool now
You clear your throat and make your pitch:

"You're a bigass dragon, and I'm a guy with a sword soooooooo"

You shrug. The dragon considers what you've said, and eventually agrees that this all makes sense. He lunges toward you and bites off your left arm.
You use CRY, and it is not effective. The dragon bites off your other arm and throws your sword across the room. Your HP is at 1 and your arms are at 0.

Suddenly Tim appears.

"Watch out, he's got an eye infection"

The dragon stares blankly. "the fuck did you say"

You reply
"He's right!" you cry while crying.

"I'm manly man who never cries but my eyeballs are sick and gross, and highly contagious. They are full of pus that looks like tears but it's not tears because I have never cried before"

The dragon lurches back, then turns and starts to flee.
You squirt weaponized sadness at the beast.

"AW FUCK EWW GROSS NOO" yells the dragon, as it begins to run. But its feet are tied up!

"Aw SHIT fuck my ass" yells the majestic beast as it trips and falls on your moldy sword, stabbing itself through the heart. You have won.

You
"All roped up and nowhere to go. Sword through the heart and I'm to blame. Looks like... eye killed him."

"Those we're all pretty badass things to say" Tim interjects "but maybe choose one and workshop it. I can help, I'm good at dialogue now"

Which catchphrase do you workshop?
"The eyeball one"

Tim thinks for a moment, then says "I guess looks... CAN kill."

You agree that his catchphrase is better.

Tim Cruise looks at you sadly. "I guess this is goodbye then. Hey... what should we call you when we write legends about this?"
And thus was born the legend of Tim Hanks. The townspeople cheered for him, and built so many statues in his honor that different townspeople got annoyed because there were too many statues.

Tim Hanks went on to do many more adventures, and also his arms grew back.

The End.

MY JOURNEY AS A DIESEL PLANT FITTER
My journey started in March 2005 when I got an offer of apprenticeship from CMED. I knew nothing about cars and earthmoving equipment.

I also did not know what a Diesel plant fitter was (our education should do better on this front, careers should not be accidental). When I was chasing apprenticeship, I wanted to be an Auto electrician. When the CMED advert came out I did not have a driver’s licence

or learners’ licence, which is a prerequisite if you want to train in the Automotive industry. Diesel Plant Fitting is classified under the Mechanical Industry, so a driver’s licence is not required on application. I was, however, asked for it during my interview and I had one

The interview was hilarious, I cracked their ribs every now and then but that is where I learnt how to take control of an interview. (I knew no one there as well). I told them from the onset that I knew nothing about the trade, but keen to learn, that is why I applied

They asked me what I knew about mechanics in general. I responded that I knew bicycle mechanics because that it what we had at home and everything else contained in the O level integrated science book Science in Zimbabwe. So, they asked me about stuff that was in

Something I wish everyone knew: the bar's not as high as you think.

You can get that job, meet that person, start that company.

But because you think the bar's so high, you won't even try. Which is what makes the bar so low!

The reason to try a new approach to things is because you have demonstrated proof that existing approaches are not working.

let's unpack:

1. what counts as proof?

2. what counts as failure?

3. not working for whom?

4. not working towards what end?

what counts as proof? and what counts as failure?

in order to answer this one needs to understand a thing well enough to know what success looks like and to know what failure modes exist.

A thing can fail by succumbing to a known failure mode, or failing in a new way. New failure modes commonly emerge from new contexts. Or they may be due to new developments in an existing context.

proof of failure means you have observed (rather than concluded via hearsay or via abstract reasoning) failure in a known mode or new mode. in order to obtain this proof, a relatively close distance or even insider perspective is usually necessary.

failure modes are specific to the thing being examined but there are some very common patterns. here's a couple of the most common patterns:

🌺कैसे बने गरुड़ भगवान विष्णु के वाहन और क्यों दो भागों में फटी होती है नागों की जिह्वा🌺

महर्षि कश्यप की तेरह पत्नियां थीं।लेकिन विनता व कद्रु नामक अपनी दो पत्नियों से उन्हे विशेष लगाव था।एक दिन महर्षि आनन्दभाव में बैठे थे कि तभी वे दोनों उनके समीप आकर उनके पैर दबाने लगी।


प्रसन्न होकर महर्षि कश्यप बोले,"मुझे तुम दोनों से विशेष लगाव है, इसलिए यदि तुम्हारी कोई विशेष इच्छा हो तो मुझे बताओ। मैं उसे अवश्य पूरा करूंगा ।"

कद्रू बोली,"स्वामी! मेरी इच्छा है कि मैं हज़ार पुत्रों की मां बनूंगी।"
विनता बोली,"स्वामी! मुझे केवल एक पुत्र की मां बनना है जो इतना बलवान हो की कद्रू के हज़ार पुत्रों पर भारी पड़े।"
महर्षि बोले,"शीघ्र ही मैं यज्ञ करूंगा और यज्ञ के उपरांत तुम दोनो की इच्छाएं अवश्य पूर्ण होंगी"।


महर्षि ने यज्ञ किया,विनता व कद्रू को आशीर्वाद देकर तपस्या करने चले गए। कुछ काल पश्चात कद्रू ने हज़ार अंडों से काले सर्पों को जन्म दिया व विनता ने एक अंडे से तेजस्वी बालक को जन्म दिया जिसका नाम गरूड़ रखा।जैसे जैसे समय बीता गरुड़ बलवान होता गया और कद्रू के पुत्रों पर भारी पड़ने लगा


परिणामस्वरूप दिन प्रतिदिन कद्रू व विनता के सम्बंधों में कटुता बढ़ती गयी।एकदिन जब दोनो भ्रमण कर रहीं थी तब कद्रू ने दूर खड़े सफेद घोड़े को देख कर कहा,"बता सकती हो विनता!दूर खड़ा वो घोड़ा किस रंग का है?"
विनता बोली,"सफेद रंग का"।
तो कद्रू बोली,"शर्त लगाती हो? इसकी पूँछ तो काली है"।

How to sell option?
Here let me explain through simple math.
Say BN at 30000
30000 straddle trading at combine premium 800 ( based on current volatility)
Put at 400
Call at 400
You don’t know direction. Sold both.

If move will not come than both will decrease gradually.

At day end it will come down to 720-740 if move will not come. Difference is your profit.

Now case 2:
Move started.
At one points combine premium will start increasing.
Say 810.
Exit immediately. No need to do adjustment.
Let market settle.

Sell again straddle once market settle.
Now repeat same thing.

Straddle selling webinar over.
Good luck.

One can keep SL 550 for both strike to escape from sudden movement.

🌿𝑻𝒉𝒆 𝒔𝒕𝒐𝒓𝒚 𝒐𝒇 𝒂 𝑺𝒕𝒂𝒓 : 𝑫𝒉𝒓𝒖𝒗𝒂 & 𝑽𝒊𝒔𝒉𝒏𝒖

Once upon a time there was a Raja named Uttānapāda born of Svayambhuva Manu,1st man on earth.He had 2 beautiful wives - Suniti & Suruchi & two sons were born of them Dhruva & Uttama respectively.
#talesofkrishna https://t.co/E85MTPkF9W


Now Suniti was the daughter of a tribal chief while Suruchi was the daughter of a rich king. Hence Suruchi was always favored the most by Raja while Suniti was ignored. But while Suniti was gentle & kind hearted by nature Suruchi was venomous inside.
#KrishnaLeela


The story is of a time when ideally the eldest son of the king becomes the heir to the throne. Hence the sinhasan of the Raja belonged to Dhruva.This is why Suruchi who was the 2nd wife nourished poison in her heart for Dhruva as she knew her son will never get the throne.


One day when Dhruva was just 5 years old he went on to sit on his father's lap. Suruchi, the jealous queen, got enraged and shoved him away from Raja as she never wanted Raja to shower Dhruva with his fatherly affection.


Dhruva protested questioning his step mother "why can't i sit on my own father's lap?" A furious Suruchi berated him saying "only God can allow him that privilege. Go ask him"

Surendra Ananth @surendraananth, you violated my conditional consent. I assented to unprotected intimate relations with you on the STRICT condition that you tell me if you have relations with anyone else. You failed to do so, and I became ill as a direct consequence.

You refused to reveal your own STI results to me, but claimed to others they were negative and alleged I had multiple other partners, slut-shaming me. You gaslit me saying you had told me about your other partners.

You called up @justice_sisters and @SistersinIslam to tell them I was crazy, jilted. You rebuffed attempts to organise a community mediation so we could address matters. You said I was crazy for speaking to your boss and father in an attempt to keep other women safe.

You have a PATTERN OF BEHAVIOUR of misogyny, harassment and sheer disrespect for women. This was sent to a friend of mine who has never expressed interest in you and has a partner.


You think women are playthings, notches on the bedpost. You, @surendraananth, are no human rights advocate.
