I have been wearing New Balance 623 for years & while they used to work fantastic for me in my 20’s I feel like now that I’m older they aren’t enough anymore. I’ve been trying to deep dive into New Balance’s expensive shoe lines like their Fuelcell or Fresh Foam but I can’t figure out are they actually the most supportive for non runners? I don’t live anywhere near a shoe store to try them on so I have to order online. I’m in Canada if there are any other brands that I should look into. Thanks!

me from the future here, I titled the last two sections if you don't really care to read my whole story, the last one is most important and where I seek advice on the main goal here, quitting kratom
Hello everyone, my name is Chaz. I'm new here and I'm sure you can guess what I'm doing here. 8 years ago I broke my femur horribly longboarding, I did high speed downhill stuff and I slid into a tree going about 35mph or so. I got stupid that day and took a small hill for granted because I had done higher speeds before, that would turn out to be a huge life altering mistake. (idk if people wanna see x-rays but if ou find yourself curious haha I do have them for you fellow curious people 😂) it snapped in half and broke into some pieces, when it snapped it tore through the entire group of muscles there in the thigh. Instead of just needing to set it and cut a small hole for a rod the doc had to cut a big ol incision in the side of my thigh to sorta puzzle together the pieces. All this to say it's permanently effected how I walk, and the muscles all throughout my leg, through my knee and my hip are all wonky now. Not to mention I tore my meniscus when I wrecked right in the center furthest away from any blood supply, so it's sewn up in there but the tear is not really fully healed and never will. One bad physical therapist and the lack of finances in my family led to a lack of crucial aftercare. My leg still gives me issues daily but I feel it is probably manageable.
The pain medication: I grew up in a troubled household with two parents addicted to painkillers. With this it was almost as if me breaking my leg was an opportunity for them to rope me into that, as if they wanted me to empathize more. I do believe it came from a place of love, but the mindset was not there to see the damage they were doing maybe. I was 15 when I broke my femur, and as soon as the doc prescriptions stopped they were offering me some of there's because I would only need a quarter of one maybe once or twice a day (they have 30mg oxycodone) and every time I expressed guilt or sadness for this new found reliance on painkillers I had watched breakdown my parents, they would tell me that I was falling into the publics false narrative and that my pain was real (basically world against us type thinking) and I fell for it. Fast forward 5 years of an oxycodone dependency getting progressively worse as I got out on my own and started fighting with some of these internalized feelings. I met a woman and she helped me find the motivation to stop. THERE IT WAS: an amazing proposal of something that would totally stave off withdrawals... kratom. It worked, and I was so excited, I didn't go through any withdrawals. But then the kratom sort of replaced it and has been a constant for about 4 years now.
Quitting kratom: now here I am, I have made progress, I've come from 24GPD now I'm down to 9GPD. I usually take 2 beginning of day and 7 late night. I'm trying to get it to just one dose a day because I have a theory that it will help me make more progress. Now I'm wondering for everyone here who has quit. At what point could I maybe just go cold turkey and not get horribly sick or have too bad of withdrawal symptoms. I work a very physically demanding job where I'm on my feet, moving heavy stuff all day basically. But I just want to be done with the kratom as soon as I can. If it's not really possible to just cold turkey at some point should I try taking 1 gram away each day? Every other day maybe? I truly don't know where to go from here now that I'm down to a lower amount it seems harder but I want to do it right so I don't backslide.
Thank you all for your stories and I can't wait to get off of this stuff and join the people on here posting time off of kratom!

I've seen this posted earlier but Sigma feels really oppressive no matter what i do. Here are the things i've noticed and tried:
Playing as zen, i nearly hit every headshot and bodyshots, it does good against sigma and Gravitic Flux but he melts me if i get shot just once.
Playing as Baptiste, i really can't hit every shot with bap since i'm not used to play hitscan but I usually do a pretty good amount of healing against Sigma. He's also good for breaking his shield.
Playing as Kiriko, completely counters his ultimate and her ultimate proves very useful against sigma and his shield especially.
I most likely play Zenyatta because he counters annoying DPS and flankers usually(I'm looking at you genji) but as i mentioned earlier if i'm the main target of sigma i pretty much die no matter what. It ends up sigma almost wiping my team nearly 80% of the time. I know it's also about killing his support but my DPS players usually die before getting to do that.
I think against an oppressive Sigma a Winston would be good but i wonder how best i could counter Sigma with the support role?

So I did an AMA after reading the first 4 books and I’m back after getting through what was perhaps the most enjoyable read in the series. Not the best mind you, I think that goes for book 2 still.
Perrin gets totally sidelined this book, which makes me happy-sad because while I like him, his POV was by far the most boring; and my favorite were Rand, Nynaeve, and Moiraine.
So when this book focused heavily on the three of them, I knew I was in for a good time.
The last ten chapters were a rollercoaster. Non stop reading. Some of my favorite media ever, period.

Notes I took while reading.

-Eladia is an idiot.
-Siuan: woman literally too angry to die
-I’m so curious wtf is gonna happen with Logain man.
-the compelling the forsaken do makes me sick to my stomach, same with the collars of the seanchan
-Asmodean and Rand have a pretty fun dynamic
-I fucking LOVE how dreams are used as communicating through vast distance. Such a clever and realistic way to move the story and communicate information between the characters
-it’s wild how the power dynamic between Moiraine and Rand has changed. Moiraine seems she will do whatever it needs to take. The mention of how she’d do everything aside from ‘sharing his sheets’ was kind of weird, especially the claims that it would bring ‘total ruin’ and I’m not sure if this will be expanded on.
-elayne flirting with thom WHYYYYYYY
-And the girls get into trouble again, drugged. This needs to stop happening lol.
-12 of the weakest Aes Sedai could beat the shit out of Rand if they are linked? That’s some bonkers shit, it seems insanely exponential. If 12 of the strongest of them link are we talking city-destroying with ease? Probably.
-what is padan fain cooking? Somebody needs to get him out of the kitchen, ASAP
-Morgase: woman literally too stubborn to be mind controlled.
-Suian has to stay close for Garett for her to live? Convenient.
-Rand walks into Aviendha changing. This could be an anime.
-Aviendha laps the other girls by going directly into fucking, while probably in another continent. Built different.
-Nyneave’s arc continues, she‘s being getting humiliated and bullied, but I wonder what the resolution will be? Just be kinder?
-WTF BIRGETTE IS DEAD
-WTF BIRGETTE IS ALIVE
-Moghedien, is a fantastic villain.
-Man seeing Nyneave so battered and meek is pretty unsettling
-I feel like BIRGETTE being plucked out of the dream world to the real world is HUGE. I’m curious to see an explanation for this.
-Uno is back! Blo*dy I’m so happy!
-Galad is going to be a huge character soon isn’t he? It feels inevitable.
-Galad and Nyneave starting a war made my stomach turn, it feels like a parallel to Rand, but maybe unintentional. Nyneave certainly feels like she’s causing nothing but trouble and chaos.
-Mat is finally growing on me as a character this book. I find how he uses these memories in this head in battles, and seeing him trying to get away from Rand is straight up a tragic comedy.
-the battle Cairhienin was awesome. Seeing Rand plus Egwhene and Avhienda do damage with their powers was a sight to see. It especially made me happy that Rand got plucked away from the front lines because it’s so obvious he can do so much more from afar. The Mat chapters in the battle were fantastic too! The remaining Shaido will be relevant in the future I want to bet.
-Sammel chucking lighting bolts from afar was weirdly funny to me.
-When Moiraine swore obedience to Rand I was expecting the power dynamic to go further and further in Rand’s favor. But now he listens to her all the time, and if anything he’s constantly seeking her. Funny how that works. But I think this is for the better, I’m pretty sure Moiraine wants nothing but the best.
-Seeing Rand’s growth is always so satisfying, from the village boy into an expert player of the game of houses, into the dragon reborn. And it makes me pretty sad too. Cold and hard he wants to be, I eagerly await to see how far he goes. He has much of the east under his control now and it’s a treat to watch him at work.
-who gets the throne of Cairhien? I was thinking Moiraine but would that even work? He could command her but wasn’t her house irrelevant now? Or non-existent? I don’t remember.
-Man the dark ones seal are being broken left and right. What is up with that.
-This is so WEIRD. it feels like the climax of the book happened with the battle for Carhein but we keep going.
-Rand scaring thots. Alviarin is one hundred percent Black Ajah. Mat being a general, a top one of that, with his memories is a really fun development.
-the news of Morgase dying really angered Rand and this idea SEEMS TERRIBLE. Oh boy oh boy. There is no way they go straight to attack gabril/rahvin
-And moiraine just goes with it?
-Melindhra was the hinted Aiel dark friend. I feel so bad for Mat.
-Moiraine putting up so many death flags PLEASE STOP
-So, Moiraine is dead. This is probably the second time I’ve gotten really sad in this series. Lans reaction messed up
-Alright Moiraine’s letter got my eyes watery. you will do well fuck me
-WE’RE STILL GOING TO CAEMLYN?
-WHY WOULD YOU CUT FRON THAT TO NYNEAVE AND SUIAN WRESTLING
-I don’t believe for a minute Mat and Avhie
-Moghedien jumpscare
-nyneave FINALLY gets her W. But for the second time she’s now used that seanchan collar and leash. I hope this doesn’t point to what kind of road she might take in the future
-Rand and Rahvin fighting in the dreamworld is just a banger. Nyneave saving the day was cool. Baelfire working as a way to bring back the ‘dead’ is awesome stuff
-Rand wanting males who can channel. Let the man cook. Davram appearing after so many name drops.
-Asmodean dying, getting brought back, and dying, made me laugh too much
-Morgase in Amacidia? Oh boy what the fuck is gonna happen with this

Other thoughts:

Egwene is becoming a prick. The scene in the dream world with Nyneave was so fucking out of nowhere (where the forms two men groping and holding Nyneave). I know Nyneave is an asshole but what the actual fuck. I’m pretty sure Egwene will lead the White Tower in the future so her ‘authority’ is being built up but man that was rough. This might be very entertaining at least.
Also I’m pretty tired of the gendered text. Like I can deal with it. And I get it. But it’s so tiring seeing opposite gendered character argue the same way, “Men!”, “Women!”. I get it. I get it. It’s by far my biggest criticism of the book and I think it will be for the whole series. So many scenes just blend in together, always men feeling obligated to protect the women and the women being stubborn and angry at the men. I get it. I hope I see it less and less. It’s not bad, just tiring and repetitive seeing all these thoughts and arguments repeat on loop.
Also I’m kind of dreading going back to Perrin’s POV. I just cannot fathom caring about him right now. There are so many interesting characters on the move right now that I think I might cry when I see Perrin’s name to start a chapter.
Also Rand’s whole not killing women is sure…character. I don’t like it, I get it, but it feels silly right now. I think that it will payoff the in the future big time though. But I’ll explain why I don’t like it right now.
The Lanfear fight near the end of the book was awesome, between her going “fuck it mode”, the suddenness of it, and Moiraine’s sacrifice, it was great.
Yet it was held back because of Rand. It really sucks away the tension when the story makes it clear it isn’t a “oh man Rand can’t win”, it’s more of a “oh man Rand would win, but he won’t kill a woman”. It honestly makes Moiraine’s sacrifice feel even sillier. And that’s kind of the point, Rand loathes himself for it, and he suffers because of it. Yet I think there was a better way to do it. The Maidens being tired of his shit was very refreshing.
This book also hade some of the funnier stuff than any of the books. Nyneave was a riot, being so unaware of her own bad cooking, or thinking she was incredibly thankful when she wasn’t at all. I like flawed characters.
I’m really glad I started to enjoy Mat this book.

PREDICTIONS

-Mat will marry some Seanchan princes? The Court of the Nine Moons got mentioned in some seanchan prologue in another book. No idea on wtf is the ‘give up half the world’ in what he was foretold. The seanchan seem to be in another continent, so by staying there he might never come back, thus ‘half the world’, assuming there are only two continents in the planet.
-Egwene will become the next leader of the Aes Sedai.
-Logain will regain his powers, with Nyneave’s help. But he won’t join Rand or his school for males who can channel, we’ll get a Dragon vs Dragon situation.
-fain killed Asmodean. Either him or another forsaken.
-Rand will start having more and more conversations with Lewis.
-Rand will go after Illian next, assuming he can get Camelyn under control. Or none of his little empire starts to splinter.
-ngl no idea wtf is gonna happen with morgase
-a Perrin chapter will turn eagerness to read into eagerness to go to sleep
-Nyneave will take a darker road at one point. She’s also going to be straight up the strongest Aes Sedai, only being below Rand and some of the Forsaken.
-Elayne will create a wild artifact with her new found talents. She’ll also be queen in two books
-Galad will become a general for the white cloaks, or a top commander at least. Speaking of, the White Cloaks will remain Rand’s biggest mainland threat after Illian.

Copium

I’m on copium, Moiraine cannot be dead. I don’t care for Lanfear but I’m hoping. First of all Lanfear has had so much buildup that surely she would be dealt with more dramatically right? And sure Lan lost his link but like, can the link really reach the world/dimension of the snake/whatever people?
Surely not. Plus Moiraine coming back would totally serve as an awesome self reflection for the characters in the other books later down the line.
Inhales copium
As before, AMA.

so i just through what if i could just wait for the night,like when i hear everyone snoring, put on my headphones on but only on one ear, and then go to steam, install vr chat and all that stuff, but i through, my sisblings would see it cause they like to play steam games near midnight, so i will get offline on steam, and after i would let the fun begin and if i feel tired and my eyes starts to give out, i will automatically turn everything off to not end like last night, sleeping on my tablet, with my headphones on, and if you have anything to improve this plan just tell me in the comments (might be wrong flair)

I'm not trying to start any wars but I'm curious of people's opinions. Thank you in advance for any contributions to the discussion!

What I do and am trying to achieve

I freelance and build my sites in Astro (which I love). I mainly do marketing sites and portfolio sites, so pretty small scale and traffic.
I'm wanting to invest my time into a new CMS and I have whittled it down to Sanity, Prismic, Contentful and Storyblok. I have chosen these as I want a headless CMS that is API-driven and hosted by the provider. I am only comparing their free plans as I like to offer my clients something that is free or low cost (it's one of my selling points on why they should go with me rather than build using something like Wix or Squarespace).

Things that are important to me:

• A generous free tier
• Good for SSG like Astro
• A great UI for clients to use
• Things like image optimisation and hopefully backups
• Reliability and stability for my clients
• General features that make life easier

From comparing them, they all have pretty good looking free plans. I'm leaning a lot towards Sanity at the moment just off of general feel on what it offers, but also that the scaling looks more friendly for additional usage if you do start to grow (incrementing at a couple dollars of usage as opposed to having to upgrade to a $200 plan like others). Then Prismic usage looks great but almost too good to be true... Almost all usage limits are unlimited, what's the catch?

I'd love to know people's opinions on these 4 CMSs considering:

• Suitability for content-first sites (marketing/personal/portfolio sites)
• Was the free plan adequate or did you find yourself nearing limits or having to go for paid plans?
• General developer experience and time/simplicity to set up
• User experience as a content manager using the CMS to make changes to the sit

Thanks so much for any input and time you give this discussion. I find myself constantly asking which CMS to go for and I finally feel close to an answer - but I'd love some advice!
Thank you!
Note - I have used git-based CMSs before (NetlifyCMS) but I'd quite like to try API-driven.
Also, excuse me if I got any details wrong, I'm still a relative infant when it comes to the headless CMS world.

Hi,
i am looking for a group. I am open for PvE, light PvP, RP and i have nearly 300 hrs of gametime. I am 41yrs old and i want to join a nice 18+ community. Discord would be cool, Teamspeak(the thing old guys used in the early days) would be fine too.
Please contact me, i am stranded!^^

Female, 33 years old, straight, no health diagnoses, weight is 105 and I’m 5’3
I have been having a lot of pain and bloating and GI issues in the last year. I am waiting for an appointment with a specialist coming up in 1 1/2 months. But it’s gotten worse so I went to the er last night. They did bloodwork and a ct scan of my stomach area. Said everything in my stomach was normal but there is something near my liver and that I should NOT miss my appointment coming up with GI because they can help me. What would this be? Cancer or something? I do have soreness in the area around my ribs.

San Francisco Area

I am kind of like a Swiss Army Knife, I do kiting, surfing, and paragliding. Forecasting the weather conditions for each activity was time-consuming. Therefore, I created this website, which updates weather forecasts six times a day and provides a list of perfect spots near me. Each spot is specified according to wind, waves, and tides. I crosscheck these two sources of information through an algorithm that calculates a schedule of sessions near my home within a radius of 50 to 200 kilometers.
​
I also retrieve wind data from airports.

You can create and share your own list of locals spots, if you wish. local knowledge are the best!

Not really a vent and more of a realization. I've always thought that some fandoms I'm into were small, with barely a hundred fics or a few digits beneath that. But I always got views within a few hours despite their size. I wrote a one-shot for a new fandom I'm getting into today, the number fics there just over 20. And though it's been nearly 7 hours, there's still no views on it. It surprised me, and made me realize that I've been spoiled and lucky when it comes to smaller fandoms. The fic that came before mine includes the most popular ship, yet despite it being almost half a month, it only has 15 views. Crazy honestly. Guess the other smaller fandoms I were in were just active. And growing. I know one of them's almost at 5k fics now.

Born + raised in the 216 and have had a 4WD vehicle for some months now. Being in the city, there are little to no off roading spots. I’ve found only 2 secret spots/runs but I’m wondering are there any trails around the city or suburbs? I’m only seeing places that are near Columbus and more south. Please let me know, I’m tired of staying on the pavement and most of the forest areas/plains are owned by the Metro Park 🤦.

After seeing a lot of posts of comparions or likes and dislikes of both these games in particular I thought I'd give my thoughts on the two games and what I like/dislike when looking at the two. I was introduced to the series by my friend when World released and completed the game and highly anticipated Icebourne, I never got around to finishing it, until Rise came to xbox game pass and fully did everything I can at this point in time other than one or two apex kills. I'm now obsessed again and went back to World and completed the Icebourne story, I think? (Shara Ishvalda) (I know theres a monster called Fatalis) and now wait for Sunbreak! Might be long read, don't have to read all but not sure where else to put all this lol
Weapon Design
Worlds weapon designs always left me a bit disappointed as I'm currently on the Kadachi tree and it's looked the same for the past 3-4 upgrades, maybe changing White to Red for the Kadachi to the Viper. Even the same with higher rank weapons like the odagaron dragon weapon I have. Where as in Rise the weapons seem way more unique and interesting to me.
Armour Design
Flip that around and I feel a bit disappointed by Rises armour (base game) and Worlds is absolutely fantastic even base game and Icebourne has some phenomenal designs!
Movement
After playing Rises fantastic wirebug gameplay it flows so well, so when going back into World if felt slow - but that's not a negative to World its just a noticeable shift when going back. Both have brilliant movement and the Claw grab on Icebourne added new layers to fights.
Environment/Monster Damage?
Mounting the monsters to fight them on Rise is such a fun idea but does give easy rewards or damage. I much prefer the environment damage you can do in World that feels more earned from a tactical point of view for luring a monster into a favourable position. I love in Rise the little bugs that float about the map for buffs, makes exploring the map fun.
Items
As someone who only plays some evenings it's nice to have the option to buy most items easily in Rise, after reading through other threads I see a lot of people prefer the grind on collecting items which I really understand too but from an ease of access pov I love this because I can get straight into the action and don't have to worry about not having items
Map design/Graphics
Worlds map design is far and beyond Rises but I put that down to the fact its the switch and the same with the graphics, I think it bothers people quite heavily but it could look like a ps1 game and I'll still be loving it. But that's more of my relaxed view on games.
Difficulty
After going back to World I 100% get where people were coming from saying Rise is easier, because it is simple as, but I also don't see that as a bad thing. Also I think it comes down to massive open map areas which make some fights easily avoidable, so many World map areas felt claustrophobic make the fights super intense.
smaller points/preferences

• Weapons feel meatier in World, they feel like they hit hard!
• Rise doggos are cool
• Worlds canteen is better
• Twins > Handler
• Admiral > all Rise cast
• Weapon switch skills are great

Looking forward to playing Sunbreak soon & can't wait for news on MH6! It's been great fun getting back into the series. Love both these games, over 200hrs on World now and near 150hrs on Rise. On xbox for World and its nice seeing there's still a good amount of SOS flares out there needing help, Good luck out there Hunters
TL;DR- Monster Hunter is cool

I don't look anything like my meitu photo in person. Just so people know. I could be "worse kind of ugly". I just want to be a dating material kind of girl for a change and hopefully the surgeon will make me a pretty and attractive girl. 7/10 close to it. I'll do whatever it takes to become a pretty girl with makeup, filler, surgery (change my features drastically), etc. That's how much altering my looks mean to me. I was crying hysterically earlier. I want to be pretty and I obviously want it so goddamn bad. I am going to go out there, get what I want, and deserve in life! That's how mad at how I get with how I look, so no it's not going to be game over for me! I just want to be one of those girls... guys kill to have. I want to feel wanted. 😔 Looks are going to define a part of me after surgery! I think about my looks a good bit, but my personality matters too. I am going to be doing something positive for me for once! ^_^ A "pretty" swan 🦢 I shall be! Hopefully, a guy will want me after surgery. :) I am too ugly now for a guy. 😭🤦‍♀️ I won't be dating a "butt ugly" or an "ugly guy" 🤮 🤢 after surgery in the future. That's not going to happen. 🙅‍♀️ Over my dead body! My standards will be so much higher in terms of looks when dating men, especially altering my looks drastically on the outside!

Every year when my birthday comes near, my parents like spending money on a few clothes and gifts. When are they going to realize that I'm just worthless. I never got good grades. I never had good friends. I never had any skills or talents. I failed in everything i tried. Last thing i want is for them to spend money on me. All i do is sleep, eat, wake up and repeat. When my exams approach, i become even more depressed and start facing panic attacks. Every time I get treated with good, expensive stuff i keep thinking that I don't deserve good things. Every time someone tries to be friendly, i start thinking about them just trying to mock me for who I am. My high school was just filled with horrible memories and it just keeps getting worse.

Joseph
Joseph was an extremely good person with a big good heart. He loved people and decided to organize a party. He prepared food, drinks, and music and sent invitations to the whole village.
When it was time for guests to come to Joseph's party in the evening. No one showed up.
Joseph waited patiently all evening, but no guests came to his party.
Only his fat cat came to the party, which would have come anyway.
Joseph did not allow himself to be distracted by this. He thought that maybe the guests got lost along the way so they couldn’t come.
The following week, Joseph again prepared everything for the party and sent out invitations to guests with exact instructions on how to reach him.
No one showed up.
Joseph noticed that it was raining outside. He thought the guests hadn't come because it was raining outside. Joseph decided to keep an eye on the weather forecast.
For the next few days, he paid close attention to the weather forecast.
The day came when the weather was perfectly beautiful and Joseph sent out invitations to the party and prepared everything needed for one top party.
No one showed up.
As usual, only his fat cat came.
Joseph set out to walk through the village in the fresh air.
The village was deserted and in the distance, he heard music playing in the village hall building.
As he approached the village hall, he heard people having fun inside.
He reached the entrance and wanted to go inside.
The guard stopped him and said there was no place for him at the party. Joseph asked the guards why this was so, why there was no place for him at the party. The guards did not know the answer to that question.
Joseph, a little sad, headed back home.
Suddenly he saw the most beautiful woman he had ever seen.
Joseph's heart began to beat fast as he watched her.
He was delighted with her beauty and grace.
He approached her and said, "My name is Joseph, it would be a great pleasure to get to know you better."
The woman replied shortly, "I'm in a hurry to the party."
And the woman went to the building where the party was.
Joseph looked after the beautiful woman, determined to get to know her better.
Tomorrow was Sunday and Joseph got ready for church.
During Mass, he saw a beautiful woman from last night. She was even more beautiful, she looked like an angel. After Mass, Joseph hurried out of the church to greet the beautiful woman.
When he approached her and said that he was Joseph and that they had met last night in front of the building where the party was.
The woman laughed sweetly and asked him what he wanted.
Joseph offered to escort her home.
Together they headed for her house.
Along the way, they joked and laughed.
They were both extremely comfortable in each other company.
When they reached her house, Joseph asked her, "Do you want to go for a walk with me tomorrow morning?"
Woman agreed.
Tomorrow morning they went for a walk.
It was a wonderful morning for both of them.
In the afternoon, Joseph came under her balcony and brought her flowers. He had written a song for her.
"You are my maiden I am your knight I want forever Defend your beauty"
In the weeks that followed, Joseph spent the most beautiful days of his life.
In the morning the two of them would walk, and in the afternoon Joseph would come in front of her balcony, enjoying her company.
One evening while with a bouquet, a chocolate candy bar, and a new song in his heart, he walked towards the balcony of his sweetheart.
Joseph was left petrified when he saw the scene on the balcony.
His beautiful maiden was kissing passionately another man on the balcony.
Joseph rubbed his eyes, but it didn't help.
He saw well.
Just as he moved closer to the balcony to ask her what it was all about.
The father of his maiden came out.
The father looked at Joseph with contempt in his eyes and said, "Get out of here! My daughter is marrying a rich merchant next week! You are nobody and nothing! I never want to see you near my daughter and house again!"
Joseph looked towards the balcony at his darling who heard everything.
She just looked at him coldly, turned her head, and entered the house with her merchant.
Joseph was devastated.
He couldn't believe what had happened to him.
He felt a pain in his stomach and could not eat or sleep.
He decided to organize a party. Maybe the fun will cheer him up.
He sent out invitations and prepared food, drinks, and music.
No one came to his party.
Not even his fat cat showed up at his party that night. Joseph went out into the fresh air, all sad.
As he approached the center of the village, he saw a huge party.
It was his maiden's wedding.
The whole village was at the party.
Joseph had had enough of everything.
He decided to change things.
At night, Joseph crept into the church and took off the holy diamond that stood above the altar in the church.
He went back to his house and took the necessary tools.
He climbed the highest hill above the village.
Joseph threw himself into the work.
He built the most beautiful throne in the world.
A throne is worthy of the king himself.
When he had finished his work, he began to shout at the top of his voice, "Oh, great and mighty Devil! I, Joseph, have built this most beautiful throne in the world just for you! I have brought you this holy diamond as a gift!"
Suddenly the sky darkened, and lightning and thunder began to strike in all directions.
In front of Joseph, the wicked himself was created, the Devil.
Devil asked Joseph, "What do you want, you poor thing? Why are you bothering me?"
Joseph told the Devil that he wanted to be his loyal servant.
Devil told Joseph that he already had enough loyal agents and why he would accept him into his service.
Joseph said, "O great and mighty Devil, I have built this throne on the most beautiful lookout in the world. From here you can sit comfortably and watch the world. And I have brought you this holy diamond."
Devil looked at Joseph, then at the truly beautiful throne.
Devil asked Joseph, "And why is there a hole in the seat on the throne?"
Joseph said, "Your Highness does not have to rise from the throne when you want to shit."
Devil thinks for a moment and realizes that there is a logic behind Joseph's design of the throne.
Devil hated it when he got hooked in the middle of an important meeting, so he would have to run to the toilet.
Devil has sat on the throne.
Devil was extremely pleased with the comfort of the throne, so he said, "All right, Joseph. Give me my holy diamond."
Joseph sets out to give the diamond to the Devil, but the diamond falls out of his hand and rolls under the throne.
Devil starts laughing at Joseph for being clumsy.
Joseph bent down for the diamond, which was right under the Devil's ass.
He takes out the scissors and quickly cuts off the Devil's balls.
Devil let out a cry that the whole earth shook.
Joseph grabbed the balls and diamond and fled.
Devil starts yelling, "Where are you, you cheater ?! The earth is going to eat you!"
Joseph was ten yards lower hidden behind a bush.
Suddenly, Joseph got up behind the bush and started crawling his tongue and mocking him.
Devil was so angry that steam began to come out of his ears.
He became redder than usual.
Devil turned around and tore off a stone from a nearby mountain and started throwing stones at Joseph.
Joseph ran down the hill as fast as his feet could carry him.
Behind him fell stones that the Devil threw at him.
When he came to the foot of the hill, Joseph began to shout, "You coward! You will never catch me! And I will make these eggs of yours on scrambled eggs and eat them!"
Devil was so angry that the strongest thunderstruck from the sky at the place where the Devil was.
Devil has disappeared.
Joseph went all happy in the middle of the village and began to shout: "Gather people! Gather people! Gather people, let me tell you the heroic deed I did!"
Little by little, the people began to gather.
When the whole village had gathered, Joseph told how he had cut off the balls of the Devil himself and showed balls to the people.
The people have been silent for a few moments.
So, you hear one of them say, "And that's why you called us? I cut my bull's balls last week, so I'm not bragging!" To this, another local said, "Don't they look like real balls to me ?!" A third resident answered and said, "You interrupted me from watching Santa Barbara because of that !?" Another local came forward and said he could get much better balls.
The people began to disperse to their homes, and Joseph was left alone.
Joseph realized that evening, that not only the Devil was left without balls.
Joseph went to return the holy diamond from the altar to the church and went into the night.
Tomorrow, the excited cries of the children break through the village.
The children shouted, "Come quickly, people! Stairs have formed up to the highest hill above our village!"
People gathered and went to see what it was all about.
When they reached the foot of the hill, they began to climb the stairs to the top of the hill.
Stairs that didn't exist before.
When they reached the top of the hill, they saw a beautiful cherry tree in bloom.
It was the most beautiful lookout point in the world.
The people returned to the village and gathered in the square.
The people concluded that Joseph was still telling the truth and that he had been misjudged.
They began to look for Joseph in the village. Joseph was nowhere to be seen.
They went to the house of Joseph, but the house was empty, and no one answered.
The locals decided to forcibly enter Joseph's house to search for him.
The house was empty. There was no sign or voice for Joseph. They found only a message written by Joseph.
"My dear When I'm gone You have drinks there in the house You also have great music in the house Bring your food Have fun In my memory."
The locals searched for Joseph for a few more days, and since they could not find him, they concluded that Joseph must have gone to another world.
The locals threw a party in Joseph's honor.
Joseph had left a great drink and very good music. And the food at the party was good too.
Afterward, everyone had a good time.
After the party, they went to their homes.
After a few days, no one remembered Joseph.
A couple of weeks passed and the men in the village started having nightmares. Every man in the village had the same nightmare. The devil personally comes to their dreams and laughs at them by saying, "You are not even half a man of Joseph!"
It torments and provokes them in different ways.
The men in the village felt bad.
None of them could get a good night's sleep.
Everyone gathered in the village square and held a meeting.
None of the men had a solution.
Suddenly the woman spoke. Women are otherwise known to be wiser and smarter than men.
One woman spoke on behalf of the other women's: "We as a village did not treat Joseph very well! With all this, Joseph did a heroic deed that no one ever did! Joseph deserved much more! Especially now that he is gone!"
The locals all agree that this is the case and decide to erect the largest monument to Joseph, a statue that can be built.
The locals began to build a statue of Joseph in the center of the village.
As the construction of the statue progressed, so did the nightmares to the men stop coming.
When they finished building the statue.
Everyone was thrilled at how magnificent the statue was.
Joseph stood proud and high.
He looked into the distance toward the sea and the sunset.
His left hand was above his eyes and cast a shadow. He held the Devil's balls in his right hand. And his smartphone was tucked behind his belt.
As the years went by.
The legend of Joseph grew.
New generations were coming, who were much smarter than the previous ones, and proudly said that the legend, the man, was from their village.
The man who cut off the Devil's balls.
Napomena: AI, zbog dužine priče nije u stanju analizirati sami kraj priče. Interesantno je kako zbog ovakvih trenutačnih ograničenja AI, može lako doći do gubitka poruke.
AI Analiza 1: Priča "Joseph" prati protagonistu koji organizira zabavu za selo, ali nitko se ne pojavi na zabavi osim njegove mačke. Joseph ne dopušta da ga to obeshrabri, nego pretpostavlja da su se gosti izgubili na putu, ili da je kiša bila razlog njihova izostanka. Kad se Joseph ponovno odluči organizirati zabavu i nitko se ne pojavi, odluči prošetati selom i čuje zabavu koja se održava u dvorani. Kad pokuša ući, stražar mu zabrani ulazak, ali Joseph kasnije susretne najljepšu ženu koju je ikad vidio i dogovore se za šetnju i druženje. Tjednima nakon toga, oni provode vrijeme zajedno, ali kad Joseph otkrije da ga vara s bogatim trgovcem, slomi mu se srce. Odluči organizirati zabavu za sebe i pozove cijelo selo, ali nitko ne dođe. Kada sazna da se njegova draga udaje za bogatog trgovca, odluči podići najljepši prijestolje u čast vraga i pokloni mu dragulj koji je ukraden iz crkve. Kao rezultat toga, sam vrag se pojavljuje ispred njega i Joseph mu daje dragulj.
Ova priča prikazuje kako Joseph ima veliko srce i spremnost za organiziranje zabave za selo, bez obzira na to što nitko ne dođe. Međutim, kasnije se dogodi situacija u kojoj njegova srce slomi i odlučuje učiniti nešto neuobičajeno da bi se osvetio svojoj bivšoj djevojci. Ova priča može se protumačiti kao da ukazuje na važnost samopouzdanja i prihvaćanja stvari onakvima kakve jesu, umjesto da se oslanjamo na druge ili na materijalne stvari kako bismo bili sretni.
AI Analiza 2: Priča "Joseph" je priča o čovjeku koji je imao dobro srce i želio organizirati zabavu za cijelo selo, ali nitko nije došao. Nakon neuspješnog pokušaja, on nije dopustio da ga to obeshrabi te je odlučio ponovno organizirati zabavu, no ni tada nitko nije došao. On je mislio da ljudi nisu došli jer je kiša padala pa je sljedećih dana pažljivo pratio vremensku prognozu. Nakon što je vidio da je vrijeme savršeno, poslao je pozivnice i pripremio sve potrebno za još jednu zabavu, ali nitko nije došao, osim njegove mačke. Nakon što je krenuo u šetnju, čuo je glazbu u seljačkom domu i otišao tamo, no čuvar mu nije dopustio da uđe. Nakon što je vidio najljepšu ženu koju je ikad vidio, pokušao ju je upoznati, ali ona je požurila na zabavu na koju je na kraju došao i vidio je kako je ta ista žena bila u vezi s drugim muškarcem. Kasnije je saznao da je taj muškarac bogati trgovac i da će se ona uskoro udati za njega. Nakon što je organizirao zabavu za sebe i nitko nije došao, odlučio je uzeti sveti dijamant iz crkve i sagraditi najljepši prijestol za đavla. Kada je završio, vikao je da ga pozove. Priča ukazuje na teme poput usamljenosti, ljubavi, zavisti i očajanja.
AI Analiza 3: Priča "Joseph" prikazuje život i odnose između ljudi kroz protagonistu Josepha, koji predstavlja čistu i dobru osobu s velikim srcem, koja se trudi organizirati zabavu i uživati u društvu drugih ljudi. Kroz njegovu nesebičnost i dobre namjere, vidimo kako čak i najbolje namjere mogu biti zanemarene ili neshvaćene, a da to ne ovisi samo o našoj vlastitoj volji i akcijama. Joseph je bio nesebičan i uvijek je mislio na dobrobit drugih, ali se suočio s odbacivanjem i izolacijom od ostatka zajednice.
