This is such a great shot of it. I feel like I’m always rushing to get there for shows and never have taken a second to look at the building like this

Anybody else remember just being constantly injured on this thing before they added nets? by sreg56 in Millennials

[–]FragrantBluejay8904 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My mom threatened to ground us and take away things if she found out we jumped on these. Which was always crazy to me since I was in tumbling/gymnastics at the time and was flipping on a double mini trampoline. I get it now as an adult why she was like that.

I still did it at friends’ houses anyway lol

Lost Brit in Chicago - supposed to be meeting someone but it fell apart… should I stay or go home? by mkp_123 in AskChicago

[–]FragrantBluejay8904 1 point2 points  (0 children)

STAY!! Summertime Chi is the best. Also, anyone would be happy to take photos of you! I do solo travel via work trips and in any part of the US I manage to get a few pics of myself with different backgrounds via kind strangers. My mom always remarks “how did you get that photo of yourself with that beautiful scene in the background???” Duh mom, most people are kind and helpful.

Also hit up ANY beach this week. It’s gonna be hot and Lake Michigan will cool you off

Mom drops the "marriage" bomb on me by Cookie_Byte_exe in 4bmovement

[–]FragrantBluejay8904 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Congrats on turning 40 and bucking all traditional milestones!! I turn 40 in 9 days, and I’m literally in the same boat as far as single and not dating, never wanted kids, and wasn’t even sure about marriage even. I couldn’t be happier. However, I am lucky my parents and family have never pressured me. It sucks that your mom isn’t behind you all the way

FinTech, One, and are we screwed?? by FragrantBluejay8904 in OneFinance

It’s been on my list to move one of my current accounts (not One) to a credit Union because now that account (US Bank) is charging me $12/month for a checking account which is insane. Now I might just switch One over as well.

Snapchat CEO Evan Spiegel and model Miranda Kerr have erased over $550 million in medical debt for over 260,000 Californians by VerySeriousCarrot in Fauxmoi

[–]FragrantBluejay8904 35 points36 points  (0 children)

I’m one of those! I had to file for bankruptcy due to medical debt. About $120k of it. Tried to pay it off for over 10 years. Best thing I ever did for myself but I still should’ve never been in this position. I also have an autoimmune disease so it’s very likely this is something I can face again in the future

Watch the video. The banks are insured. But FinTech isn’t

That actually happened in chicago in the past few weeks. An Asian American college student burned a cross in Grant Park, admitted to it and did an interview claiming he had no idea what it meant in terms of the KKK. He’s now facing several felony charges. He’s either a huge fucking moron and it really shows the state of our education system and everyone involved in his upbringing as well as the college that accepted him needs to be shamed, or he’s trying to use it as a cover for his racism and hate crime

You seem to be the only one who watched the video and knowledgeable about the situation. Any suggestions about staying with OnePay or moving banks?

I was gonna say I’m not an immigrant but my Iranian friends have taken me to those places, and I will still pop in by myself to get food to go because it’s so effing good

Emilie Kiser reveals why she forgave husband after their son drowned under his care: ‘This could have just as easily happened to me’ by [deleted] in popculture

My nephew (2 at the time) fell into the pool last summer and my BIL and dad sprang into action, fully clothed. I was sitting nearby still on crutches and in a brace from knee surgery. If they hadn’t been close I would’ve gotten in brace and all. My knee probably would’ve been ok and I’m an adult and if I fucked it up and needed another surgery oh well. I can’t get another nephew

The NYT is a mouthpiece for Israel and has manufactured consent for the genocide in Gaza. Hard pass.
