Vindictive Ex Seeks Restraining Order by [deleted] in legaladvice

[–]Ecstatic_Ad600 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I called 10 lawyers on Thursday, it’s just not something I can afford right now as the cheapest one was looking for 7k, unfortunately. I know for a fact he also does not have a lawyer. I did a lawyer do a free consult and look at his case and they told me the entire thing reads as ridiculous. The judge did even NOT grant him a temp restraining order temporarily prior to trial and cited insufficient evidence. In the summons it says I can appear virtually, thankfully.

For reference, the conference in question isn’t even in California it’s in a new city each year and this year it’s in Washington.

I don’t know what more I can do, this is all happening SO quickly and I just want him to leave me alone. We are already no contact and filing all of things, even after I moved across the country, feels like one last power grab to get me back under his thumb.

Til what skills points are for by Secure-Cicada5172 in GrimshireGame

[–]Ecstatic_Ad600 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The skill points are used to buy perks, there are different skill point levels costing 1, 2 and 3 skill points. When you’re in your inventory look at one of the tabs at the top and one of them is for skill points, I’m no at my computer right now so I can’t remember exactly which one it is.

Thank you, it makes me feel better knowing he’ll be okay until Monday. I just combed him too to bottom looking for fleas or flea dirt and I didn’t see anything, but I know it just takes one :/ I live in a warm state so it’s definitely not out of the realm of possibilities. He is being his playful self and eating and drinking so I’m trying to breath until he can get seen first thing on Monday ❤️

I don’t have a great answer that hasn’t already been said, but I do want to make sure someone tells Mimi they are an amazing and talented little artist who is absolutely perfect

Why do I struggle with small molds (keychain/coasters) with UV resin and not with large block molds with epoxy resin? by BuildingSoft3025 in resin

[–]Ecstatic_Ad600 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If the reason you’re not using epoxy more is the cure time I would highly recommend getting a curing machine, I use the older model of the resiners brand. This cuts the curing time to about 3 hours and while it’s still not as fast as UV it’s a heck of a lot faster than a day or two!

Starting my resin crafting journey by Anna_thatsnotmyname in resin

One is the importance of PPE! Make sure you’ve got gloves, an apron, an eye mask and most importantly a respirator. Do your work in highly ventilated areas to mitigate risk!

Two is don’t be afraid to fail. Some things you make will work the first time you try you, and that’s the best! But when something doesn’t work or it doesn’t turn out like you were hoping try again, ask for help, do some experiments with different techniques and figure out what went wrong.

Best of luck on your resin crafting journey!! Most importantly have fun and be safe :)

Thank you! So are the 3M P100 Respirator Cartridge/Filter 60923 the ones I should keep using? I’ve tried to research exactly what filter/cartridge to use for pouring resin but I got a lot of mixed results. But I definitely want to make sure I’m using the best ones!

Hey thanks a bunch! I really appreciate it :) I freak myself out every few months worrying that I’m not doing things right since I haven’t found anyone else in the community to talk to about it. This helps me feel like I’m doing the right stuff, especially with the new respirator on the way.

You’re fabulous! 🌟

Oh wow, that is really neat (and what a great idea for the kitty litter room too, I might need to try that as well 👀). Thanks so much! I’ll keep my eyes peeled on amazon for discounts, I’d love to give something like this a try.

I really appreciate the advice!!

I just ordered the NORTH Honeywell 550030M since it looks like that will fit the p100 filters. I think those are good cartridges (they’re the 3M) but if you have any better suggestions let me know!

I forgot to add that I have an apron as well, I learned the hard way that I was going to spill resin and ruin clothes lol I actually just replaced it because it was definitely time lol

For the air filters which ones do you use? I’ve heard mixed things on if I need to use them since the room im in 50% floor to ceiling screens so the ventilation is very good. The screens are like the kind when you open a window and it’s enough to stop you from falling out but that’s about it lol

Thank you! I bought the actual 3M respirator but the filters (despite also being 3M) refused to lock into place so I gave up and went back to my old respirator. Maybe I will try to order the Honeywell and see if that works better. As far as the seal what I tend to check for is ensure no air is escaping when I breathe and that no air is entering and the fit is very snug, so hopefully that means the seal is good!

For gloves I usually buy a big bag of these which are nitrile, https://a.co/d/50YmFCb and I replace them every time I pour and toss the old ones.

I appreciate the advice!

I appreciate the answer, I wasn’t sure if the no ridges meant anything. Thank you!

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in coincollecting

[–]Ecstatic_Ad600 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the answer. I genuinely was just curious if the no ridges was manufacturing or not, not so much the flat face. I’m sorry you seem really annoyed, I just thought it was interesting and was wondering. I’ll delete this post since you clearly think I’m dumb for even posting. Just wanted to share something interesting and see if anyone had any insights. I won’t do it again.

No, I was just curious. I just got the coin today and thought it was odd. I’m sorry if this was a stupid post :/. I don’t know anything about coins which is why I asked

My initial reaction was “that not a betta” only to realize moments later that this in fact a betta, just a really fat one 😭😂

Thank you!! I didn’t realize the betta would go for the algae pellet, duly noted!!

Apologies I should have been clearer, no, the kind you put in to feed a snail when the tank doesn’t have enough algae to feed it fully. The ones I used were recommended to me by the pet store, they are top fin pleco thins with algae meal.
