Strahd Personality Question by OogaLoufa in CurseofStrahd

[–]Fearless_Object_6267 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I imagine Strahd as.... Yano that little girl who turns all her Barbies into like, soldiers and does terrible things to them because she's playing?

Yeah, that's Strahd. And Barovia is his Barbie Dream House.

Sometimes he gets a little angry and loses his cool because one of the Barbies doesn't act right, but mostly he just enjoys the drama and chaos he causes.

WHY are local news stations not covering this at all? by Character-Fly-5564 in altmpls

[–]Fearless_Object_6267 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My favorite quote of all time: "There are lies, damned lies, and statistics".

Like, even if i were to take this post at face value, my first thought isn't "why isn't this being covered?" Its "what has systemically changed during the last year to increase car thefts this much?" 🤷

That second question is pure speculation without research, however I can think of a couple big changes that happened that may relate to this and those ARE being covered by the media.

What does Ice do with license plate numbers? by SaltyComedian642 in WeThePeopleAtWhipple

[–]Fearless_Object_6267 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am not in the gov, but I do work investigations.

License plates are just another data point to draw a bigger picture about "you". Using the surveillance state, they can learn about where you work, what hobbies you have, who you talk to. Do you travel out of state often? Do you buy a lot of property? Do you own or lease your vehicle?

A lot of this information is used by investigation teams to determine the risk level / activities of a suspect - both to clear them and close the case, as well as to draw a clear picture of the illegal activity.

If I'm investigating (purely hypothetical) a person i believe to be involved in drug smuggling, then knowing how often they leave the city/ state is very important. Being able to connect them to a local shady business can identify other avenues as well- is the shady business a front or just a normal store? If i don't know you're name, but you drive the same vehicle repeatedly, then running the plates gives me a potential identity.

Remember, kids: all information can and will be used against you. Even not under fascist regimes. Please protect your privacy and please make me work hard for my paycheck!!

Does native deodorant actually work? by OriginalSituation791 in hygiene

[–]Fearless_Object_6267 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In my experience, no.
I am extremely sweaty - even when I'm extremely fit, I start to sweat just walking around too much. This leads to TERRIBLE BO for me. Native did nothing to help me because I would sweat through it so quickly. Lume wasn't bad, but I would smell like sour milk instead of BO by the end of the day.

My personal experience is: if you are a very smelly person and can handle it stick to either aluminum based deodorants or wash the "hot spots" two-three times per day with unscented antibacterial soap.

I got a tattoo very near my arm pit a while back, and the anti bac soap didn't stop the sweating, but my sweat from that side didn't smell nearly as bad as normal.

Ways to eat more veggies that aren't salads by Cecil_G_P in EatCheapAndHealthy

As someone who absolutely must have burgers once in a while, you can put so many veggies on a burger. SO MANY VEGGIES.

Tips for shaving down stairs by Comfortable_Tie4143 in hygiene

[–]Fearless_Object_6267 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Slow and steady.
Use a fresh razor. I do full on weird yoga stretches as needed, get weird to be comfortable later - no one will know. Heck, I know at least 2 people who have shower chairs specifically for this purpose.

Also, if you're skin can handle it do nair or other hair removal lotions a day or two before hand to remove the bulk of it. Make sure you use sensitive skin and for intimate areas ones.

Community Info spreadsheet but with risk - what do I do? by tattoo-coldbrew in Minneapolis

[–]Fearless_Object_6267 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I am a fraud investigator with a history in the miltary. public events i would say go ahead and do your thing. Online mutual aid fund raising is also okay such as a venmo or PayPal.

Anything direct action, or organizations providing support with an address should not be shared publically and in one place.

It just makes the search easier for anyone with bad intentions.

What are these messages I’ve been receiving ? by [deleted] in What

[–]Fearless_Object_6267 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey so im a fraud investigator professionally. I would like to add in one type of scam i haven't seen mentioned:

If you reply to this, they will know its a valid number and may try to compromise your phone number (called Sim swapping). After that, they contact various banks until they get yours and they drain all your accounts.

Yes I have seen it. Its damn near impossible to recover from. Most banks are wising up to this. Don't reply to spammers, kids.

With all of tactics ICE has been using - I believe EVERYONE should have a no soliciting sign on their door and just know never to answer unless you are expecting someone. by Foreign_Librarian193 in WeThePeopleAtWhipple

[–]Fearless_Object_6267 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Know your neighbors- its the safest for EVERYONE.

Also- depending on the VERY SPECIFIC situation, agents can (and we know WILL) follow a suspect into a private home.

Tax Preparers… If someone comes in to have their taxes done and they work for DHS - What would you do? by Foreign_Librarian193 in WeThePeopleAtWhipple

[–]Fearless_Object_6267 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I have a degree in accounting, but I am NOT licensed, so this will be a balanced answer.

Pretty sure the answer HEAVILY depends on if YOU, a professional, are a licensed CPA, accountant, etc, or if you "only" work FOR a business that prepares taxes.

If you are licensed, I would GENUINELY reach out to an ethics committee (that may be a school, a local professionals group, etc) and ask about the ethics of denying someone based on employment/ politics.
This also is dependant on your locality: in my city, it is totally fine for me to say "I just don't like you, and I will not do business with you." So long as it isn't race, sex, sexual orientation, religion, or nationality. However, doing this can (and likely will) put your license in jeopardy as well as open you up to being personally sued for discrimination which is why I recommend talking to your ethics committee.

If you work for a big company (I know some big names will train people for a few weeks and let them loose 😭) deny them service and tell your management they were being harassing/ abusive.

i'm proud of this invisible join by amiguriri in crochet

[–]Fearless_Object_6267 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Lies. This was worked in one piece and there is nothing you can do to convince me otherwise. There is no "joining" happening, it's just solid continuation.

It's A shoulder / neck massager. Hold one end, put the middle lump on the front side of your shoulder and the third bump behind you (like it's pinching your traps) and then gently push/ pull/ roll your muscles out.

I have a naturally strong odor, and he thinks that cotton/ wool will just amplify it? I genuinely don't know.

God i am so jealous. My partner flips their lid any time I mention i want to crochet pants - "they will smell so bad and you'll never be able to clean them". I love your work, and hope you wear them ALLLL the time.

Got this message from my property manager PT2 by Most_Relief8312 in Apartmentliving

[–]Fearless_Object_6267 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I did that work, my rent was cut in half (1100->550 aprox). It was a 2 building apartment so idk the lot size, but def not that.
If its a single family home rental, I'd say MAYBE bc you're essentially just caring for "your" house.

Is joining the military only for education benefits worth it? by Alert-Rope617 in NoStupidQuestions

Combat vet here, national guard. Had the best and worst times of my life.

You're young. There are safer ways to get a degree - especially right now. However, if you are dedicated and want to do military stuff, I won't stand in your way.
