So... what are the first steps?

Talked with my ex wife in the morning yesterday about her being distant for a few days now. She mentioned that she was done trying to make the relationship work and that she wanted to get a divorce. I tried to keep us together and tried every avenue I could think of but she said that she didnt want to. ***This next part is long as its just context so im not sounding like im being biased you can skip if you want but its just backround information that led up to the divorce*** Just to make things fair, we got married when we found out our child was on the way. I didnt like that the marriage was so rushed and pushed, that our child wouldn't be in our home the first year of her life, that every early birthday was going to mainly take place in her hometown. We live an hour away and there was never any talks of hosting somdthing down here just always up there. I built up resentment and I acted cold during the 3 years of our relationship. She caught me watching porn once and drew the line there, I continued and she caught me again and we had a serious talk and almost divorced then. During this talk I thought we were finally on even ground. The secrets, the resentment & our thoughts just came out into the open. It felt liberating. I worked on things she mentioned and tried to dial myself back. There's issues I have like my anger where I just shut down instead of talking through it, going to Church and being stronger in my faith. Now its about 4 months later and she suddenly wants a divorce. During those 4 months it was like we were just a normal husband & wife. Nothing i could notice that our relationship was getting worse just better. We started doing game nights & Bible studies. We recently started looking for a bigger home so I haven't been able to go to church for I believe 7 weeks straight cause of work hindering the days we could tour homes or something else needing attention. This is now the 3rd time shes wanted to "break up". I dont know where my minds at but I know for sure im not turning to the worst. We have a child and shes at the forefront of my thoughts. I know this is a low time for me but what I can do to make things easier for myself and my mental health? What do yall recommend?

How can I convince my mom that me & wife need the master bedroom?

Im not gonna write a whole novel explaining why this living arrangement is the way it is. Yes we can live on our own no she cannot. Currently we live in a 2 bed 1 bathroom home. We are gonna sell the home and move into a 3 bed 2 bath. My mom mentioned to me that she NEEDS not wants but needs the master. She has foot problems and needs a shower as she cannot step into a bath. My argument is that its me and my wife. We are 2 people with double the amount of things she has. We need room so we're not cramped like we currently are. She can use our shower anytime she wants. At a later time we can take apart the bath in the 2nd bathroom and install a shower instead. We're going to talk to her but we're afraid she'll build up resentment cause she'll think its an ego thing or something else other than the facts. She tends to take things to heart when we dont mean any harm. If we're going into a bigger home with an extended period of time where we literally wont be able to leave we want the house to still feel like a home and that we're family. If theres any advice that could be offered thatd be great. Thank yall.

Is there a video on how to clean the wastegate?

10th gen 1.5t accord. I think i need a new waste gate but I just need the codes to go away so I can get my car inspected this month. A few months ago my car lit up like a Christmas tree. Got the codes read and it was underboosting. Took it to the shop and they just cleaned the wastegate and it was back to normal. Just recently popped back up and same code. I just need a video on how to clean it, like detailed video so I can clean it at my house and get the inspection done monday. I needa save money cause rent is due! I cant pay those labor rates right now haha.

Esophagus spasms really suck

I rarely get them throughout the day its mostly at night that I get the spasms. If I didnt know it was common with gerd then I would've thought to go to the hospital. Ill just be laying down and then i get a spasm and I have the breathe in fast. It normally happens before I have to burp. Once I burp im good for another lil bit. All I know is that im getting on pantro soon and im dreading it. I have an endoscopy early in august and they want me off the pantro but ill start taking famotidine again (which sucks cause it messes with my bowel movements and makes my... trash yellow). The 3 days before the endoscopy happens they've said to not even take famotidine. Im genuinely scared I wont be able to sleep for those 3 days cause my gerd always flares at night.

Lights flicker and then the AC cuts out.

Hey yall, (not actively selling here just being honest) ive been trying to sell my uncle's RV. The biggest con against it is the fact that you cannot have the lights on and the ac on at the same time. If the AC is on and you turn on 1 light it'll start flickering and slowly die out. This causes the AC to just turn off by itself. My uncle refuses to address this before selling. But for the price hes wanting I feel like it should be addressed or at least find out what it is exactly. Any ideas?

GERD Flare up?

Hey yall, currently going through it with a flare up. Ive taken what Is now 5 antacid tablets but the symptoms are still strong. Currently I've got some chest pressure going on. Its the main thing. I've had it since 12pm and it is now 2:15 AM. Not sure what to do here honestly. Normally my flare up ends about an hour after taking antacids. I dont believe its a cardiac a event as my pulse has been stable and theres no jaw and arm pain. Its just pressure in the chest and upper stomach. Anything I should try so. I can fall asleep soon?

Anyone here have access to the games released between 2000-2008?

So, ive been searching for a game i used to play in Jr high on our school laptops. For years ive searched, asked, even reached out to people I was friends with back in jr high. Nobody can remember/knows what im talking about. I believe it MAY be one of the UT games. But I dont have access to the games to be able to play a few maps and see if it was an unreal tournament game. Some of the menu screens match. The one im talking about had a blue/light/baby blue background with the maps being shown behind it on loop. No campaign just multi-player. Its not quake. So UT is my best bet. Ive tried googling titles of the games followed by "maps" and the results are just jumbled images. Idk which goes to which. So if anyone has access to them still if you can please contact me/let me contact you so that I may get images/videos of the maps. Thank yall, hopefully this unscratchable itch gets scratched soon.

Ive got the space but is it bad for the PC?

Hey there everyone,

Long story short my wife bought me a Lego Ahsoka so ofc I redid my theme to match her colors.

Anyways, I figured since I have the room for it on the inside if it would be bad to put some scenery inside? I want to get an ahsoka & anakin action figure and build a scene inside my PC. I figure it'll mess with the temps but im looking for some veteran advice. Thank yall. (Ignore the cars, if I took them out right now without a plan my daughter would disintegrate them into the nearest wall)
