Hi! I got a cleaning today and my dentist said I have early stage cavities on my top front teeth by the gums. He informed me that I can get a procedure that takes out that part of your like tooth and puts in filling that prevents it from getting a cavity. Should I do this and is it a good choice? Thank you!

I am looking for suggestions for a dentist that does not force treatments and possibly doesn’t do traditional X-rays. I have guardian insurance, but really wanted to find a holistic dentist, just can’t afford that right now. I have severe health/doctor anxiety and just thinking about needing to go can send me into an actual panic attack. Looking in Pittsburgh or north of the city, could be within an hour drive of downtown though.

so, i decided to lay off alcohol for a while. i'm not in recovery or anything, i just got tired of spending so much and feeling terrible the next day. i got back in the gym, i'm losing weight, and i'm enjoying life just fine. now that the warm is coming back around all my friends are hitting me up to go get drinks. i want to, but i also don't want to sit around like a dweeb with ricky bobby hands. my favorite place to hang out was hominy creek river bar, but if i go hang out there all i will want to do is drink and sit on the beach. what do y'all do to just chill with friends that's not centered around alcohol? dog friendly would also be nice.

In an effort to get more pricing info, found a dealer in the Netherlands who sells Grenadiers starting at 68K euro tax included. I believe tax is 21% there. 57K without tax? That is ~ 62K USD?

I think they should have a river update and a Structure update. what do you guys think?

In 2046, Chu Lina was already in her junior year. Because she often fought since she was a child, she was eventually dubbed the "freak".

Yes I know, people are probably tired of seeing chatgpt related things, but I really wanted to share this one. I haven't used it before so I was curious to see if it could be a sort of "narrator" for a nuzlocke after hearing someone made great use of it for a DnD campaign where it keeps track of characters and events and all. To my surprise, it did so quite well and I feel like I'm just scratching the surface. I thought I'd have to set up all the context for each response, but it just goes once it has the setup. I'd be interested how it turns out if someone did so for an entire run
I was quite impressed with what it was able to output with how little it was given and found it quite intriguing. Disclaimer: not an actual run.. yet. Anyways here are the 3 responses it gave but I'll cut some of it out (longer than I was expecting). The third one I found to be the most interesting if you just want to read that one
___________________________
Q: I'm doing a wedlocke of pokemon emerald. I want a story for my pokemon which are (male) treecko paired with (female) poochyena, (male) zigzagoon paired with (female) lotad, and (male) wingul paired with (female) psyduck up to the first gym

A: One day, the Treecko and Poochyena met in the lush forest near their hometown. Despite being different species, they quickly formed a strong bond and decided to team up on their journey. The Treecko was a confident and fierce fighter, while the Poochyena was more cautious and strategic. They complemented each other well and set off towards the first gym.
On the way, they met a Zigzagoon and Lotad, who were also traveling together. The Zigzagoon was an energetic and curious Pokemon, always eager to explore, while the Lotad was a shy and sensitive creature, fond of the quiet and serene nature. They decided to join forces with the Treecko and Poochyena and make their way towards the gym together.
Lastly, they met a Wingull and a Psyduck near a calm river. The Wingull was a proud and majestic bird, with a sharp sense of direction and excellent flying skills. The Psyduck, on the other hand, was a bit scatterbrained and often lost in thought. Nevertheless, they agreed to accompany the others on their journey.
Finally, they arrived at the first gym, where they faced a formidable opponent. The Treecko and Poochyena fought fiercely, using their unique abilities to outsmart their opponent. The Zigzagoon and Lotad provided support, while the Wingull and Psyduck cheered them on from the sidelines.

​
Q: poochyena dies, how does the party react

A: The Treecko, who was Poochyena's partner, would likely feel devastated and heartbroken. They had formed a close bond during their journey, and losing their friend would be a significant blow. They may become withdrawn and quiet, struggling to come to terms with the loss.
The Zigzagoon and Lotad, who had also been traveling with Poochyena, would feel saddened by her passing as well. They had all shared experiences and battles together, and Poochyena had become a part of their group. They may offer comfort and support to Treecko, understanding how difficult it is to lose a friend.
The Wingull and Psyduck, who had not been as close to Poochyena, would still sense the sadness in the party. They may not fully understand what has happened, but they would likely pick up on the emotions of the other Pokemon and become more subdued as well.
As the trainer, it would be important to acknowledge the loss and give the Pokemon time to mourn. You may want to hold a small ceremony or moment of silence to honor Poochyena's memory. Additionally, it would be a good idea to offer extra attention and care to the remaining Pokemon, as they may be feeling vulnerable and in need of support.

​
Q: treecko finds a new partner, a female whismur

A: After the tragic loss of Poochyena, Treecko may have struggled to move on and find a new partner. However, one day, as he was wandering through a dense forest, he heard a soft and melodious voice. He followed the sound and found a female Whismur, singing a beautiful song.
At first, Treecko was hesitant to approach her. He still missed Poochyena and felt guilty about the idea of replacing her. However, as he listened to Whismur's song, he felt a spark of excitement and curiosity. She seemed gentle and kind, and her singing reminded him of the joys of friendship and companionship.
Slowly but surely, Treecko and Whismur began to bond. They trained together, sharing their knowledge and skills. Treecko showed Whismur how to be more confident in battle, while Whismur taught Treecko how to appreciate the beauty of music and harmony.
The Zigzagoon and Lotad welcomed Whismur into the group, happy to see Treecko finding joy and comfort once again. They recognized the special connection between Treecko and Whismur and were glad to have her as part of the team.
The Wingull and Psyduck, who had not known Poochyena, were also happy to have a new friend in the party. Whismur's singing and gentle nature brought a sense of calm and peacefulness to the group, which they all appreciated.
Overall, Treecko's new partnership with Whismur helped him heal and move on from the loss of Poochyena. They were a strong and dynamic duo, ready to face any challenge that came their way. And with the support of their friends, they felt invincible.

Here's the deal. Moved here from MO a while ago. I was in MN for a couple of years as well. I am done with school now and have been looking for a job. There is a job offer in Davenport area. I was there over the weekend just to know what it's like. Thb I was driving around and it was dead on Saturday night and Sunday night. Those who lived there or from there and know about it, what do you think about moving there? Would you consider it? Differences from DSM and Iowa City area?

I just had a thought about the demo showing the tutorial island. I wonder if the demo was doing it backwards, since apparently that game file had already done it.
When we see the stambulb and the ranger and the cooking pot, I bet you're suppose to FIRST come to this side of the lake, and the ranger teaches you about stambulb cooking so you have enough stamina to swim across the lake to the other side.
Once across, THEN you can make a craft to get back if you want (and maybe you don't have Ultra hand yet, but will get it on this side of the lake.)
And then maybe from there you go on to learn fuse and how to fight. Does that fit with what we see. Did he go about the island backwards?
Speaking of this being tutorial island, I wonder, can we leave mid tutorial? You don't need a paraglider to leave, as he didn't use one...just landed in a river. Yet I wouldn't hold it past Zelda devs to make it so if you don't have a paraglider when you fall, Link screams "AAAAAAH!!!" and all fades out to white and you wake up back on the edge of the island. Just a prediction...
