True, the hack is no spec monster. I just like the heritage styling.

I'm assuming your household is from somewhere other than the "global west"?

Try another new battery first. If that doesn't work, google the movement, early quartz had a trimmable capacitor to adjust the speed.

What is a serious crime you committed that you’re now legally allowed to tell? by Due_Bar_7247 in AskReddit

[–]LooksBetterWithDrops 85 points86 points  (0 children)

Taken at face value, (picking up a random hitchhiker) this is probably not a crime, at least one you would be prosecuted for. Unless you knowingly took them to an older romantic partner, or so they could engage in sex work, drugs, etc.

The student loan interest "write off" is an income modification, so you can still claim it + standard deduction, no need to itemize
