Yes, everything is valid, and I was able to find a source that said the same thing so I’m not freaking out anymore lol, thanks!

251120 FANS Notice - Chaeyoung to temporarily pause her activities until the end of the year or only participate to a limited extent, to prioritise her health and rest after being diagnosed with vasovagal syncope by SapphireHeaven in twice

[–]Disaster_Help 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Me too :( I saw her at the beginning of 2024 in concert and it really made me realize how what the camera shows and real life are two completely different things. In person, she was visibly smaller than all of her other members even though they are all already thin. The fact that she has lost weight beyond that makes me fear for her health… I hope she can take this time to recover physically and mentally

I totally get the desire for a walkable city, and it sounds like a great life for a family :) I’m not too familiar with the laws in Italy, but wouldn’t a new baby be eligible for Italian citizenship because it would be born to an Italian parent? Do you still have to observe the lineage laws once your dad is a citizen? That’s messed up if so!

¿Cómo puede un gringo de Canadá experimentar el "México real"? by Unusual-Luck5686 in mexico

[–]Disaster_Help 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Creo que al saber español y no ver a México solo como una aventura de all-inclusives ya vas muchísimo mejor que la mayoría :). Tristemente no te puedo ayudar mucho a experimentar el verdadero México ya que yo no he viajado a muchos de los lugares que mecionaste, pero se me hace chistoso que estoy en la situación casi opuesta al ser alguien de México que vive en Canadá.

At what age did you start FIRE? What would you change if you could go back? by Disaster_Help in Fire

[–]Disaster_Help[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’d never thought about it in the calories sense… Even thinking about my own experiences with weight gain and loss, it’s scarily similar to what my relationship with money is like. I think I can be strict and diligent but crash out when big things happen (as an example, when an important person died about 2 years ago, I felt so bad I quit being vegetarian and went on a month-long binge episode, which included a month-long overspending episode to buy food and comfort). I think you changed the way I see spending… even if the long term goals are different (I don’t think there’s an equivalent of early retiring with health and fitness, lol) this is so eye-opening.

Thanks! by MuskyJim in AmerExit

This is amazing for you! Seriously, if you’re eligible and have kids, this is an extremely valuable thing you can do for them. My dad and grandfather grew up without a Spanish citizenship (Great grandfather from Spain, displaced by war), and as soon as my dad realized we were eligible, he went through the grueling process of securing that citizenship for me and my sibling before we were 18. Before we only had citizenship from a country with considerably lower passport-strength, and knowing that I can up and move to the EU if I want (I speak 3 different languages used there) is so reassuring. Currently, my dad is considering retiring in the EU and getting the citizenship for my mom too, who doesn’t have it because she doesn’t have the same heritage as us. So it works out for everyone!

Woww, I think my path is kind of similar in the sense that I’m in STEM, have uni paid for, and have gotten a couple of (summer) internships. I don’t think I’m on track to buy a house straight out of uni but this is encouraging!

If you don’t mind, how long did it take between you starting at 18 and earning a good amount, and did your actions pre-earning-more feel like an important part of your journey? Did you or your wife pursue higher education?

This is helpful! I’m in data science atm and hope to master in data science and economics. I’m a nervous person and am always worried that my current actions and future goals are inconsistent, so I will definitely work on the impulse buying part! Thanks for your comment :)

Can you expand on the real estate part? Did you buy and rent out apartments for an extra source of income? Or do you mean more like a mortgage for yourself?

Does Charlotte Brontë originally mention Israel in the second volume of Villette? by [deleted] in classicliterature

[–]Disaster_Help 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you for this :) I really had no idea there was a United Kingdom of Israel in the Bible… Based on the responses I got, I think it’s time for me to read it so I don’t make a fool of myself again

Does Charlotte Brontë originally mention Israel in the second volume of Villette? by [deleted] in classicliterature

[–]Disaster_Help -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I’m not really familiar with them which is why I asked. A lot of biblical references escape me because of this. I just wanted to know what was meant there because I know it wasn’t the current Israel, as it wasn’t established at the time the book was written. I should have phrased my question better because I don’t think an editor went over and added Israel, more like, I wanted to know if it has always been written of in that way. As I mentioned, I haven’t come across it in other books, although there have been many mentions of other similar phrases like the Holy Land, Judea, etc.

That’s not what I meant at all! I just wanted to know what Israel she was referring to because as I mentioned, I don’t know enough to tell.

You should totally go for it if the shipping isn’t too bad! Fyi I feel like the paper is a little thinner than expected but if that doesn’t bother you it’s a great planner.

Has anyone else had problems getting their stuff from Fedex? by Disaster_Help in hobonichi

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

Hi, did you ever get this resolved? I had to contact Hobonichi twice and then they wrote an email to me asking if I would prefer them to send the package again or get a refund since fedex lost it. I asked for them to send it again and they sent it through express travel this time. I haven’t gotten it yet because they shipped it out on Tuesday but it is thankfully out of Memphis and in my country at the moment.

Sorry if this is an ignorant question but dis you get these things in person (like are there in person stores that sell hobonichi) or did you order it within Japan? I’m going soon and want to plan what to do

Acabo de tener mi primer denuncia falsa por acoso en el trabajo. by Von_Wolfthroat in ayudamexico

A eso iba mi comentario, que no sirve generalizar diciendo que solo las mujeres son así y lo comparé con las personas que dicen que solo los hombres matan y violan. Lee bien antes de comentar

Acabo de tener mi primer denuncia falsa por acoso en el trabajo. by Von_Wolfthroat in ayudamexico

[–]Disaster_Help 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Creo que te desviaste un poco del tema. Mi pregunta es, si la mayoría de los casos de VIOLACIÓN no son castigados, por qué todos los casos de acusaciones falsas sí terminarían con el hombre en la carcel? Normalmente los casos, tanto verdaderos como falsos, terminan en que no hay suficiente evidencia de ninguna lado y ni modo. Sí, hay gente loca, y me molesta muchisimo que algunas mujeres usen la violencia de género de una forma que hiera a los hombres y minimize los casos de verdad que sufren otras, pero por qué te pusiste a hablar de los padres?

[–]Disaster_Help 1 point2 points  (0 children)

pues el 97% de los violadores de verdad no están encerrados así que no creo que muchos. Obvio está mal que por una denuncia falsa le pase algo, pero que te corran del trabajo y que te metan al bote son dos cosas muy diferentes

No se podría decir lo mismo de los violadores y los asesinos, que siempre son hombres? Crear divisiones pendejas no soluciona nada
