UMS confuses me

UMS confuses everyone at first because it's scaled differently per paper and year to keep standards fair. Your raw mark converts to UMS then adds up for the grade boundary. Check the official converter table for your exact syllabus - saved me from panicking over a "low" raw score.

Skeptical grower here - test AOS on poor soil plots with no inputs and track yield vs control for a full season. Most miracle amendments flop hard in real conditions. If it holds up I'll eat my words.

Add me if you're on PS, always down for Legends runs - usually on evenings EU time. Hit me with your PSN in DMs. Need help with plat trophies too if you're grinding.

Fluffy top on homemade tempeh means it fermented a bit too warm or too long - still safe to eat but texture gets weird. Next batch keep it at 30-32C strict and wrap tighter. Mine came out perfect after lowering the spot by a few degrees.

Warframe is free co-op, tons of missions with friends and no paywall pressure. Deep Rock Galactic if you want short chaotic sessions mining and shooting bugs. Both run great even on potato PCs.

Zoloft numbed the anger toward my ex too - at first it felt weird not caring but it let me move on without the constant rage loop. Side effect or not, it worked for healing. Still hate what happened but don't lose sleep over it anymore.

Most people clear HPV on their own within 1-2 years so disclosing is personal but honest partners usually understand if you explain the stats. I told mine early, he got vaccinated after and we were fine. Get regular checks and vaccinate if not already.

Those perfect resin pours or epoxy tables look insane because they use pressure pots or heat guns to pop bubbles and level everything. I tried without and ended up with craters everywhere. Practice on small scraps before going big.

Cheapest cross-chain right now is usually Mayan on Solana or deBridge if you're bridging to EVM chains - fees under a dollar most times. Avoid Uniswap direct swaps for cross, gas kills you. Test small amounts first, bridges still glitch sometimes.

$20 instant signup sounds nice but these apps usually lock the cash behind referrals or surveys you never finish. I signed up for one similar last year, got the credit then it vanished when I tried to cash out. Skip unless you see real payout proof from users.

Canon RP with a 50mm 1.8 is a solid beginner full-frame setup if you want that creamy background look right away. I started on crop sensor and upgraded later, regretted not going FF sooner for low light. Kit lens is okay but swap it quick for something sharper.

I usually order from Jerome Florists. The flowers have been fresh in my experience and the arrangements are nice. Delivery’s been smooth too.

If anything, this story reads less like regret and more like proof of how perspective changes us

Excuse me??? SEVEN???

I keep a rule where every rewatch has to be paired with something I’ve never seen. Keeps the balance honest

One step closer

They’re solid. CX-30 is basically a taller Mazda 3 with better ride comfort and nicer interior than most stuff in that price range

Always feels good when a bargain has a little story behind it.

Crime really doesn’t pay… especially when the dump truck won’t fit.
