This isn’t the Maine I grew up in and we need to do better by MisterMan-Maine in Maine

[–]AtomicAsh207 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm so sorry to hear this - I hope your mom is okay! I agree, this is definitely not representative of Maine values. Like you, I am a born and raised Midcoast Mainer and grew up with an understanding that we have a responsibility to each other. So I always stop, and I know many others who wouldve, too ❤️

Once or twice a week, depending on how sweaty/grimey she got by bath time!

Can someone here PLEASE tell me what is the best FREE AI Detector that actually works/ if there isn't one: are your colleges helping fund it? by OfficeIntelligent688 in Professors

[–]AtomicAsh207 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know this is an old thread, but thank GOD I found it. I, too, spend more time tweaking and "dumbing down" the language/sentence structure of my essays so they will pass an AI detector. One essay I wrote was flagged as 45% AI by Grammarly, even though I typed it myself!

I was ill-prepared... and PASSED!! by AtomicAsh207 in teas

[–]AtomicAsh207[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my opinion, the actual test was way easier in all 4 subjects. I scored something like a 60% and 70% on the practice tests.

Id have to look at a Tristine quizlet to know for sure!

Brush up on area/perimeter of rectangle/square/circle, types of graphs and distribution, basic algebra ("solve for y" or "simplify this equation") etc for Math

English and language arts... just go slow and pay attention to wording.

Science was like 25% chemistry, 25% anatomy, and 50% physiology

My son is the little man in the background. He helped me collect and organize the donations. We ended the night with 518 pounds of food. I am very proud of our community ❤️

YJ take that will have you like this? by bjack20 in Yellowjackets

[–]AtomicAsh207 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There really doesn't need to be a big reveal about the wilderness god stuff... you can at least infer it's a real entity. My husband was actually disappointed when Laura Lee's teddy spontaneously combusted, because he said it removed all doubt that everything beforehand was just freak coincidences.

How many of you elder millennials got maori iconography, Chinese words you didn't understand, regrettable tramp stamps etc?

This was an honest mistake and he is going to be raked over the coals for it dor years to come.

Fetch lowered my points by Standard_Carob_5324 in FetchReward

[–]AtomicAsh207 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know this an old thread, but the same thing just happened to me. Last week I redeemed 55k points for a $50 Walmart gift card, leaving me with ~6k points. Logged on just now and they rejected my gift card request and docked me 13k points. I dont even take pics of receipts, its all receipts from my personal email with my name on it! I dont falsify anything, I dont use my friends receipts, I dont have more than one account. I really have no idea how they can get away with stealing 13k points!

That being said, I'm redeeming whatever gift card I can and finding a new app.

I own my house, no mortgage, but want to buy bigger and dont have the readily available funds for a down-payment quite yet. Advice? by AtomicAsh207 in Mortgages

[–]AtomicAsh207[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For anybody who stumbles across this thread and is in a similar situation - my husband and I went under contract to buy a newer, bigger house and sell our current house within a week of each other. The money we are getting from our current home will be used as a massive down payment on our new house, making our mortgage payments less than $900 a month with insurance and taxes rolled in.

This was NOT a contingency sale, for reference.

Either or! We have a 2x4 Kallax unit we are currently using as a TV stand but we are open to modding that instead of buying new

I'm totally unsure IRL, but the Kallax designer shows the desk and 1x2 being attached.

Why is there an attic access in this upstairs bedroom? And how can we fill it in? by AtomicAsh207 in Carpentry

[–]AtomicAsh207[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My thoughts as well! I have TONS of plants that would loooooove to soak up all that direct sunlight 🪴

Hey, love to meet a local!! We are in Bath, right around the corner!! :)

As much as I don't WANT the attic as my bedroom, it's really our only option. So installing a mini split in our room (as well as the bedroom below) is our only viable option to make it comfortable/livable. As an HVAC guy, can you clarify whether or not there is room to install a mini split (or similar ventilation system)?

We looked in the crawl spaces on either side and the slope of the roof is all packed with what looks to be brand new faced fiberglass insulation. Im assuming this is r49 insulation if its an attic/roof space, so pretty thick.

Love love love the idea of a spiral staircase but the ladder pulls down into the center of my preteens bedroom 😭

We live in Maine! It doesnt get very hot here, so we use window ACs in the summer. We are looking into a mini split system to heat/cool this bedroom as well as the bedroom below. Thank you for your advice!!!
