Chat Parrot might be finished

Parrot is just not suited to be a ruler. His main problem (as a king or even a general) is that he is too kind for his own good. He cannot crush his enemies totally if it means saving his people. That is the one advantage leaders of all other factions have had over him be it Clown,Ash,Lettuce or more recently Saps. Right now he has the odds fully against him, and unless he goes on full LettuceK mode and creates another organized,obedient and geared militia like the Law which he probably isn’t gonna do despite him being smart enough to do it, I just don’t see him winning this on his own. Let’s see where the story goes next. LMK what you think.

15M here. I started showing symptoms of this disease when I was 9. Was misdiagnosed several times until I was 11 and put on immunosuppressant therapy with budesonide and azathioprine. My condition back then affected my mid jejunum, terminal ileum, I-C junction and parts of my colon. The therapy worked in terms of inflammation in the colon and I was painless for a few years but I was re-evaluated when I was 14 because I was just not putting on any weight and my hemoglobin refused to climb up beyond an 8. The inflammation in my jejunum and terminal ileum as well as I-C junction were still there.

Doc put me on Remicade 125mg every 2 months (I was 25kgs) and it felt like it was working like a charm for the first few infusions. My weight increased to around 30 kgs but they didn’t increase the dose for some reason (PS the old doc who diagnosed me got transferred to another institution) Fast forward around a year, last month I was there for my check up and had a terrible flare. Turns out I had gotten low on Remicade (0.9mcg/mL) and had developed antibodies (67.3 ng/mL). A CT scan revealed I now have inflammation in my mid jejunum (this just never goes away man), I-C junction, sigmoid colon and transverse colon. They’ve put me on Rinvoq 30mg (2 months) and Prednisolone (30 mg previously, tapering off 10 mg per 10 days) and my case has been transferred to another institution called AIIMS after the 2 months. Symptoms have alleviated and I’m now very cautious of my diet, but idk if it is the Prednisolone or the Rinvoq or both.

To top it all off, I’m from Nepal. Gotta travel to India to even get access to decent healthcare and it is EXPENSIVE man. I know biologics are probably gonna be my best bet if even this doesn’t work, but we’ve drained alot of financial resources just from my long history and the failed Remicade from last year. Genuinely wonder sometimes how one manages to get themselves into this situation but whatever. So…what do I even do? Don’t even have insurance and I doubt any companies would be willing to offer me any especially with my diagnosis several years ago. Let me know if you know anything.

Apparently raising a border issue that is very much historically valid and has been debated for years is “anti-India”? What kind of simpleton half witted logic is that?

Their foreign secretary says they are open to diplomacy but far right ultra nationalists like this guy here keep spreading hate for no reason man.

For background: I have Crohn’s disease (IBD), prefer not to reveal age but I’m a teen have been getting treated in Delhi for the past 4 years since diagnosis but the condition isn’t improving much. They’ve prescribed me medicine for the time being for symptom relief and short term disease control (2 months), case has been referred to AIIMS Delhi where I’ll go after the next 2 months.

I want to know what hospitals offer online consultation that also have the best GI doctors as I’m unable to physically come to Kathmandu valley right now. Please help, this pain is somewhat improving each day but it’s still so debilitating I can’t risk no communication for 2 months with any doctor when my condition isn’t fully stable.

When I say community, I mean the broader Blox Fruits community as a whole, not just this subreddit. Take this post with a grain of salt because I’m about to relieve my long time frustrations.

Genuinely, WHY are we like this? The rest of the ROBLOX community views us as bandit beater enjoying weirdos and to their credit THEY’RE RIGHT. Not enough of us complain about 90% of this game’s progression just being “grab a quest, defeat 8 bandits and repeat.” Which prompts the devs to just not put enough effort into reworking this part of the game which is the MOST IMPORTANT.

And when a few people, usually old players complain about this there will ALWAYS be some little 11 year old on their crappy mobile complaining that we don’t need it because OF COURSE little Timmy (I know plenty of little Timmys are reading this post as well) doesn’t have the brains to play a game that isn’t just mindlessly beating NPCS for the most part and then fighting other players with the same braindead builds (kitsune,portal,sanguine and whatever the meta has been for ages) until a funny number called bounty goes up and little Timmy gets to feel good about it even though it requires 0 skill.

It isn’t just the progression either, since the majority of this game’s player base is filled with little Timmys we will only be getting mindless pay to win fruit reskins or fruit reworks that nobody will use for more than a week as updates for most of the year. ACTUALLY needed updates like the above mentioned progression rework, more sea related content, actually fun and modern boss fights, better looking models for swords, guns and accessories, crew system rework, new subclasses, map reworks, etc just end up at the bottom on the devs’ priority list since a small number of people ask for it and the little Timmys will complain about their crappy devices not handling these systems even though the devs can easily optimize these features after adding them. Not much to work with either since there aren’t any other one piece games with as much content as Blox Fruits, so that was my little rant, take it how you will I suppose.

Hi, I’m giving the 10th board exam this year. My target is to get a 4 GPA but I’m very nervous and unsure of myself as I couldn’t do it in the 8th or 9th grades (more info at the bottom)

Now I know most of you will say the SEE doesn’t matter as much as private schools tell you and honestly I agree. But I’ve made a deal with my sibling that they will buy me a top tier gaming PC of my choice if I get a GPA 4 so that is the thing primarily behind my sudden motivation spike (please don’t judge haha, I’ve wanted this since I was a kid).

Anyways, For my grades (all theory only) in 9th I got an A in Nepali and Science, B+ in Social Studies and Computer and an A+ in only English as well as Optional and Compulsory Mathematics. In 8th I got held back from a 4 GPA by B+ in Compulsory Mathematics and Science so there’s that.

All advice would be appreciated as I’m genuinely clueless on how much to study, time management, the resources that would help me, the approach I should tackle each subject with, etc.

I would like to read some History books. Can be both world history and Nepalese history. I’ve got no preference in particular, just want to broaden my understanding of the world.

I think it’s time the first sea map is due for a revisit. The rework for the second sea has gotten delayed due to optimization issues which is valid since that place is a PvP hub of sorts but I don’t think there’s an excuse for the devs not focusing on reworking the islands and just overall map of the first sea.

For starters the map was designed back in 2019, literally 7 YEARS ago, so it’s no wonder they look so small, lazy and straight up like aesthetic abominations. Personally I started to take notice of this more and more after MoistCr1TiKaL played the game for the first time last year and it felt incredibly embarrassing to look at the outdated map.

It’s not like the staff team for builders is under qualified either, they have Zartania who is an incredibly talented designer and has worked for several other games including Deepwoken which is known for it’s immersive environment and likely other developers who work more behind the scenes than in public. There’s just so much more that can be done with the first sea’s design especially with the Sky islands,Prison, Desert and Marine Fortress when you think about it but the potential isn’t utilized and as a result you have a very low quality and outdated new player experience. I think it’s time we start discussing this more. LMK your thoughts.
