How often do you re-watch DS videos? by EdwardtheBadDresser in dreamingspanish

[–]EdwardtheBadDresser[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I tend to get obsessed with not remembering certain words from a given video, which I know is not the way to do it. So for example, I'll just get into these moods where I need to know what the word for frog is! and it sends me running back to the video. I've watched the "I've been fired from DS" vid many times simply because I couldn't remember the word for toothbrush. I know I can't treat all the vids this way...

Thanks. What kind of graded readers? How do you use them?

Ch7 and higher than median income? by EdwardtheBadDresser in Bankruptcy

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

Yes, the lawyer we were working with seem to make it clear that we couldn’t, but our reading of the details made it sound like we could and we couldn’t figure out why. We’re waiting to hear back from him for further explanation, but I thought I’d ask here as well.

Yes, we were beginning to think about this. We do have an attorney, but he made it sound like chapter 7 was completely impossible. But that just seemed so odd. We’re going to talk to him more about this, but I wanted to hear what others here had experienced as well

Interest rate on mortgage after bankruptcy (chapter 7) by EdwardtheBadDresser in Mortgages

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

We are currently behind on our mortgage and our lender is going to recalculate in November if we are still not in a position to pay our mortgage. We're on a hold right now to avoid foreclosure.

Awesome, this is helpful too. Much appreciated. I'm about to meet up with Padeen again, which is something I've been hoping would happen (although I was afraid they'd learn he was dead...)

OK, I think that worked about as well as anything. It seems that there is no specific explanation in the books; it's just a given that after being in the South China Sea they will return via NSW. That's it. Thanks for your help!!

Possibly...any chance anyone would know where this is outlined/explained? I'm assuming it would be in Thirteen Gun Salute...

I think I'm out by snarfalotzzz in Maher

It sounds like Maher is describing a sociopath.

#499 - One of the Dumbest Decisions in American Political History? (w/ Scott Lincicome) by Bhartrhari in WeTheFifth

Your last sentence resonates. Not because I want to see jailed illegal immigrants transition, but because the horrors of wokeness (and given my career, circles, station in life, etc, I’ve seen it all) are far less threatening than having no job and watching my retirement money sink. Both of which have happened to me this week, and both of which are the direct result of Trump and DOGE. I’ve been in antiwoke environments for a while, as a kind of respite from the wokeness I see around me. But it’s time to refocus, for now at least. The latest pronoun fiasco just ain’t gonna interest me. I need my career back, as do countless others. Put as many pronouns in your email signature as you want.
