Love takes many forms. Caring for someone without the expectation of a benefit you want is a form of love. If my wife came down with MS and we could no longer have sex, I would still love her, respect her and admire the mother and life partner that she is. I would also be upset that I couldn't have sex any more.

I personally would try to figure out the following, with or without professional help:

  • Why is she depressed? She is going through a lot. She is probably scared you are going to abandon her when she needs someone the most. She may also hate the situation that you are in because of her illness. She is also probably angry at the world that she has to suffer this. She is also probably worried for her child and feels guilty that she can't give her more. There are so many feelings she has to process, it may be easier to just shut down.
  • If you remove the expectations of sex with her, would you be willing to stay with her as a caring and respectful partner and mother to your child?
  • You might explore non-monogamy. That's going to be a complicated conversation, but maybe something your wife is willing to explore. Just ensure it takes into consideration all the issues in the first point.

A good mother and partner is so hard to find. Love can take many forms. Don't feel limited in your choices if you can make other options work out.

All this without any citations at all.

The IBA is a corrupt Russian body that was upset the Russian boxer was defeated. They never released any results or the methodology they used to determine their decision. They were rightly removed from the IOC.

Anti-Isreal protests? Don't they mean anti-genocide?

I think you mean bowels?

So you're saying most father's that turned into MAGA fanatics were weak or absent when their children were young? I don't know how to interpret it otherwise.

Better title - "Politicians work with insurance industry to stop a block to unethical profits."

I thought the same thing, but it has sparked a huge discussion about if the word "weird" is a good label for Trump, Vance, and the most fervent MAGA supporters. When you're fighting a cult, I have a feeling it works.

We need more instances, but we need to be a lot smarter about the structure. I think we will only be able to grow larger if we make a more intentional separation between topic-based instances and "people-home" instances, so that we can have a better spread of the load.

I don't know if it would help with load-balancing, but I feel hash tags would be better than communities.

Thanks for the comments. By separate incursion, I mean - are they entering Russia through a completely separate area of the Russian border? It is it an offshoot of the other forces, entering Belgorod through Russian territory.

This really does change the strategy of the whole war, especially if they can hold it even expand their the gains.

I would also imagine other countries bordering Russia might take notice.

For me, it's the ability to add multiple apps to folders with a checklist.

Wow. This is a very interesting development. Thanks for the update! Discussions about Ukraine is one thing I miss from Reddit.

So is this a separate incursion?

 

Northwestern University researchers have introduced a soil-microbe-powered fuel cell, significantly outperforming similar technologies and providing a sustainable solution for powering low-energy devices.

 

Reddit users thevincentasteroid and MMD3_ posted about an auto-playing video ad (with sound) on the home screen. The ad is for Chicken Tender Wraps from Carl’s Jr. When it begins auto-playing, it pushes all the other UI elements out of focus and goes almost full-screen, returning to the home screen after it has played through once.

 

GIANT stands for Goddard Image Analysis and Navigation Tool, and it is basically an optical navigation software. That's right, it uses images snapped by cameras, lidar, and other sensors to find the best way forward, kind of like we humans do when we use our eyes to see where we're going.

Simply put, GIANT only needs a picture of the target to be able to determine distance, the mass and center of a spinning object, and even identify landmarks on the surface of a celestial body. Three-dimensional maps of potential landing zones can also be generated, complete with potential hazards.
