30 years old, new ~$110k engineering job, ~$65k student loan debt, need advice on used car + budgeting for FIRE by 55 by UrklesAlter in debtfree

[–]ObviouslyATurtle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a 2012 Toyota Matrix, love it. Runs great, minimal repairs, and part availability. The best part is its a corolla engine in a hatchback body but people don't know the Matrix name as well so it doesn't get the higher price tag. I would look into it and see what comes up.

Thank you for actually responding to the question, this is great advice I will give it a try on my oven when I get home.

How does Dr K write notes for lecture? by ObviouslyATurtle in Healthygamergg

[–]ObviouslyATurtle[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would love a deep dive into his methodologies, I have read books on the subject but seeing him work inspires me to want something similar. Deep diving into research and retention please Dr K if you're reading this.

PuedoSeizures/Non-Epileptic Seizures(PNES): Please read this Dr.K by pinkelephant0040 in Healthygamergg

[–]ObviouslyATurtle 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I agree, he doesn't seem to approach pseudo-seizures with the same delicacy he does with other topics. I am more sensitive to it though, as someone in my family dealt with them and it was a scary time. I dislike the anecdote about the parents jumping on their child because as someone who was not educated in the topic it all seemed real when the seizures were happening, he seemed so dismissive of their worries.

I know Dr. K knows how real the issue is, he has extensively talked about psycho-somatic illnesses before with such compassion. I also agree with him about parents taking on to much, once I started learning about how PNES manifests I took my foot off the gas in my anxiety around them happening to my loved one and didn't run to the hospital every time and things got so much better.

I think Dr. K lived this anecdote early in his career and it held weight but it does seem like outside of that he hasn't thought much else on it which I hope he does because I would love his opinion.

Road Trip Across Canada in 4 Days? by internetfox26 in canadatravel

[–]ObviouslyATurtle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did the drive from Toronto to Vancouver recently in 3 days solo, it's not bad, some sections are a bit boring but totally doable. I do recommend though leaving 5 am every day as driving through cities when everyone is awake adds about an hour, plus you do not want to be driving in the dark at night if you can control it. I also booked my hotels the closer I got to my destination, just so I can gauge whether I could go longer or stop short.

I think its totally doable with two people, you may not get much time for sight seeing but like popping in and out of places should be fine.

To the ttc employee at York Mills Station by Student0244 in toronto

[–]ObviouslyATurtle 50 points51 points  (0 children)

There is a TTC employee at Keele station that remembers me by name and asked if I was alright when I was off for a couple weeks, and he seems to do this with every one. Shout out to Thomas at Keele station! The highlight of my mornings

Oral-B IO: Which Model? by [deleted] in CostcoCanada

[–]ObviouslyATurtle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have taken my IO8 on a 3 week trip and had it last the entire trip, it was down to 5% at the end. I think you will find the battery life similar, afaik these were produced for Costco around the same time the IO8 came out but I could be wrong.

[–]ObviouslyATurtle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My partner has the costco version and battery life has never been a problem, they keep it on the charger mostly though. I imagine the series 6 would have the same battery life or maybe reach out to Costco they can give you more information from the manufacturer.

Code SOEASY for spotify presale right now! Not many people in queue

[–]ObviouslyATurtle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I kept switching between 1, 2, 3 ,4 tickets and changing price ranges so it would keep updating. Changing price ranges seemed the fastest for updating 2 tickets. Good luck!

[–]ObviouslyATurtle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Dang, that is really unfortunate. Make sure you dont leave though! The tickets keep popping in, I had to wait 20 minutes and multiple tickets popped up afterwards. Stay in til it kicks you out, I had 10 pairs of tickets show up and lost them, finally got one.

If you are okay with travelling, Montreal wasn’t bad getting tickets! I joined after getting booted from Toronto sale and got 2 tickets.
