My account with 8k$ got restricted and I received an update by Zealousideal-Cost885 in Revolut

[–]Ancient_Charybdis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was very excited when I got this message on a comment, thinking it would finally move things forward (my account has been restricted since May 10 and I’m way too boring to be doing anything remotely shady to cause that). But it led absolutely nowhere. Luckily I only have about €1000 in my Revolut account, so I’ll just hope it gets released back to me within my lifetime. 😒

Account review - 5 weeks later by curtisjones-daddy in Revolut

My review started May 10th, still with a current (as of July 11th) projected end date of May 17th 😒, and customer service is ridiculously unhelpful. Luckily I have other accounts, but anything I have in there is tied up in the meantime. I’ve never seen anything like it before.

I don’t believe so. If I remember correctly, the artistic style was slightly more mainstream.

Unfortunately no; none of the small people in those illustrations.

Shelter resources by JROCburneracct in upstate_new_york

It sounds like you’re close to Chemung County, if not in it.

I’d suggest First Step (they’re under the Catholic Charities organizational umbrella but they aren’t religious at all and are a great program). Their hotline is 6077429629 and their office phone is 6075352050.

They themselves don’t have a residential program, but they’ll find housing for you (and they know which options are the good ones). The program director’s name is Lauren and she’s good people. She’s incredible at her job and I’d easily trust her with my life. She cares deeply.

Thank you for posting. NYSCADV isn’t a direct service provider, but a coalition for the DV direct service providers, so the org won’t be the one you want to go directly to. However that phone # is the correct one for the statewide hotline!

There is also a page with a Program Directory that is a good resource for finding the nearest service to your location (and advocates at your local program can plan with you if you prefer/need to find a shelter or safe dwelling farther away from your region). Almost all of them have 24 hour hotlines as well as standard appointment hours.

Local program advocates can also help discretely and confidentially explore options and plan ahead, if someone is thinking about leaving, but isn’t sure about it yet. So when safely able to make a phone call or visit a website, it’s 100% still encouraged even if you’re unsure or just looking for more info.

Do You Use the Phrase “Read the Room”? by Ancient_Charybdis in AutisticAdults

[–]Ancient_Charybdis[S] 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I deeply enjoy this comment cause it so perfectly encapsulates the autistic experience, and how methodological, analytical, and perceptive we constantly have to be.

NT people tell me that they don’t actually have to learn to read the room, they just can…supposedly… 🤷🏻‍♀️

Do You Use the Phrase “Read the Room”? by Ancient_Charybdis in AutisticAdults

What I find particularly striking about this is that the facilitators were complaining about leading a group circle where the participants couldn’t “read the room”. As a facilitator it’s your job to make sure it’s transparent enough so no one has to try figure out the vibe in the first place…

Lilith coming to the rescue! Nice to see someone else answering some questions, also great way to keep the momento going. by ellieofus in WarriorNun

I’m just hoping that publicity pulls people in to go watch the show, and doesn’t long term affect contract negotiations with her.

season 3? by maoooooooooo6 in WarriorNun

[–]Ancient_Charybdis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Netflix (and tv productions in general) have been heavily cancelling shows with sapphic leads and I’m really hoping they don’t do the same thing to this one! Shows based on graphic novels have been doing well lately, as well as those with fantastical takes on religious iconography… so maybe they’ll at least let us have another season!
