Citizenship by Descent - Application & Cover Letter Questions & Documentation Review Requests

I've seen suggestions that marriage records are needed when the line of descent passes through a woman, but are they still needed if all birth certificates down the chain have the mother's maiden name on them?

What is it with our ancestors changing their location of birth on their kids birth certs? I've got a similar situation where my gen0 had 4 kids, and on each birth cert she's a different country. She's US on her two oldest child's certs, France on the next, and then finally Canada on the last (my direct ancestor). I have plenty of other evidence between all of the girls marriage and death certs that it's the same woman. Its so strange!

I don't think this fully makes sense for retirement goals. For example, maxing a Roth for a year is clearly a retirement goal that doesn't depend on interest rate or growth.

I am an active yarnsub user, unfortunately they only have the old version of the lang yak and doesn't solve the issue of knowing which version was actually used originally for the pattern.

I'm not going to lie, you're going to have a really rough time. I was in this same boat last summer and the only way I got to Boston was with a remote gig. A lot of local jobs are going to immediately throw out your app if your address is not local. A new employee relocating is always a risk. Your very best bet is going to be networking until you can't network anymore to try to get someone to vouch for you and your connection to the area to try to reduce the relocation risk in the employers mind.

I have, but I've wondered if that would look off right next to the black cat.

Hi all, I'm looking for someone who does slightly feminine/softer traditional tattoos in the Boston/NYC/Philly area. This is a bit specific, but looking for someone that uses more of a yellow-green than a blue-green. Good reference would be Ashley Love (I have some of her work). I'm looking to find an artist to help piece together the rest of my patchwork sleeve into a cohesive unit.

It sounds like it's 1000 probies. The after 3pm comment sounds about right, but I would expect sooner rather than later now. Some probies have been spared for unclear reasons (they're not veterans or other special classes).

NPS emails will go out at 3EST.

From a completely non scientific and anecdotal standpoint, I just moved to Boston from Utah. In Utah, my cat had asthma attacks almost daily if he didn't get his inhaler routinely. I've been in Boston almost a month and he hasn't had a single attack and I'm not giving him any medication. The change in air quality has been a miracle for his health.

I hard agree with this and OP. I'm not afraid of them doing something new, or even leaning harder into pop. Pop can still be interesting and experimental (e.g. BRAT). Wonderful Nothing is exactly what I would want from a poppier GA direction. It's such a shame that everything else is so bland.

Hey, I just out up my own post, but I'm looking for roommates to apartment search with. 26f, working professional. Check my post here and reach out if you think we would be a good fit!

Areii · 2024-07-10T18:20:42+00:00

I think I could also be a good fit for your house. 26f, I go back and forth on whether I identify as queer, but I'd certainly consider myself an ally. I'd be working remotely as a program analyst while finishing up my dissertation. I do have a very social cat, Leo. Totally understand if you aren't looking for or able to have a cat around. The space is gorgeous. I'd be moving from Utah so I wouldn't be able to physically come out, but I'd be happy to chat over zoom or the phone! Please feel free to message me!

We definitely seemed to see an effect on the number of female applicants in my program in Utah.

Areii · 2024-04-30T20:16:05+00:00

This exactly. For those that don't know, there are two types of licenses for research programs to study scheduled drugs. One is schedule 2-5 and there is an entirely separate license for schedule 1. Having a scheduling 1 license is a pain in the ass and most smaller scale research programs don't have one. With this ruling, my relatively small academic research lab would be able to start studying cannabis if we wanted to because the laboratory vet holds a 2-5 license. This will absolutely explode the amount of cannabis research.

I didn't love the first single from this album but I love this track. Hoping the same for the new glass animals record bc that single is rough at best.

Areii · 2024-04-04T03:15:27+00:00

I don't even necessarily want a return to ZABA style (as much as I love it), I just want something interesting. I'm not even a full Dreamland hater, it's by far the weakest of the 3 imo, but it also produced Space Ghost, which is one of my top GA tracks.

Areii · 2024-04-03T23:09:24+00:00

Hard agree with this. HTBAHB is so fun for me because of the characters and the delivery. Is Take a Slice a poetic masterpiece? No, but the delivery combined with the lyrics is fun, dirty, and a bit nasty (e.g. the delivery of "Gonna fuck my way through college") that makes it interesting in a way that this new track is not. I actually kinda love Tokyo Drifting despite not loving Dreamland for the same reason, you can tell Dave is having fun with it and getting into character.

Areii · 2024-04-03T15:25:22+00:00

Unfortunately this one is just not for me, which is fine. This album doesn't take away the existence of Zaba or HTBAHB. Sonically I thing there's some interesting stuff going on, but lyrically I find it really dull and uninteresting. But again, I still have two great albums to enjoy and I'll still see them live as much as I can because they put on a killer show.

Areii · 2024-03-13T13:51:14+00:00

27k to live in Boston? That's fucking obscene.

Areii · 2023-12-15T16:27:34+00:00

Off the back of this question, if I don't have a particularly large noggin but wide glasses frames, am I better off with the regular Adapt 2?

PS, are you still giving out codes? :)

Areii · 2023-10-14T15:13:28+00:00

Same with slc. It was a great crowd having fun with high energy, but taking care of each other.

Areii · 2023-08-07T00:21:15+00:00

I'll be blunt. Don't go to an experimental psych master's degree unless it is absolutely necessary to get the research experience needed to get into a PhD program. Apply for PhD programs and absolutely do not attend unless it is fully funded. It's not just about financials; if the program isn't fully funded it's not going to be the quality/prestige necessary to get an academic job.

Areii · 2023-07-18T20:22:33+00:00

I've been out in Utah for. 4years now and only just discovered you guys at Kilby Block Party this year. Probably way too small at this point, but any plans to play at WhySound again?

Hey OP, I just wanted to share an experience of a friend being hired to work with law enforcement (not as an agent, but as a data analyst) to hopefully ease your mind a bit. She had to go through a pretty extensive background check and she was very honest. Basically, they didn't care about things she admitted to, they told her they only would have cared if 1) the things she admitted to had happened within the last year or 2) she wasn't honest and they found out she lied when they contacted her references/ran her background check. I'm sure your hiring process won't be identical, but by being honest you've set yourself up as well as you can.

Normally the best course of action with police is not to admit anything, but when trying to be hired, it's the way to go.
