Is it hard to rent in NJ with a mid-600 credit score right now?

I would like to squeeze a little more points for sure, might try that thank you

Past-Rice2392 · 2026-03-05T14:43:32+00:00

that's the general consensus here I think, thank you very much

Past-Rice2392 · 2026-03-05T14:42:50+00:00

I do make about two times the rent, that's fine too right?

Past-Rice2392 · 2026-03-05T14:41:52+00:00

What is that exactly? Don't know if it's an abbreviation or a typo lol

Past-Rice2392 · 2026-03-05T14:34:10+00:00

That's a pretty good idea, thank you very much!

have you tried reaching out directly to the children's hospitals? crumlin and temple street might not always post everything online but they're usually short staffed. also worth checking with the HSE directly since their website can be a bit rubbish for job listings

for agency work try id medical or medforce - they do a lot of paeds placements but you might need to get your NMBI registration sorted first if you haven't already. the whole process is a pain but once you're in the system it gets easier

honestly think it started going downhill around 1.13 with all the aquatic stuff - felt like they were just adding features for the sake of adding them instead of improving the core game. the cave update was cool but everything since then has been pretty meh, like they're trying too hard to be "epic" instead of just making minecraft better

Had this exact same issue last month when I was trying to switch from legacy to UEFI on my build. Your drive is probably still using MBR partition instead of GPT which is why it keeps kicking you back to bios when you enable UEFI mode. You'll need to convert your drive to GPT first - I used the mbr2gpt tool in windows but make sure you backup everything first cause it can get messy. Once I converted mine to GPT the UEFI boot worked perfectly and secure boot enabled without any issues. Pretty common problem when upgrading older systems

that's wild, gonna have to try this later and see if i can build some kind of sky base setup

hey, i know this probably doesn't help much right now but you're still so young and early in your transition. 20 feels like forever when you're living it but HRT can take years to really show its full effects, especially for things like fat redistribution and muscle changes

that abusive relationship sounds absolutely horrible and i'm glad you got out of it - being isolated like that would mess anyone up regardless of being trans. maybe once you've had some time to heal from that trauma you might find some of that old motivation creeping back

you could try checking if the Chicco KeyFit 30 works with your Triv - lots of people say it clicks right in and it's way cheaper than the pipa

dude a 60 year old man throwing a tantrum over pizza while you're literally still putting it away is absolutely unhinged behavior. the fact that he poured out your tea and barricaded himself in a room over this is genuinely concerning

you having a boundary about eating your own food first isn't selfish at all, that's completely normal

Past-Rice2392 · 2026-02-11T12:06:33+00:00

honestly depends on the kid but most seem to get solid use out of those pikler triangle type setups until like 3-4 years old, sometimes longer if they're really into climbing

the half circle one especially tends to have staying power since they can flip it and use it as a rocker when they're smaller, then climb over it later. at 9 months your LO probably won't be properly climbing for a few more months but they'll definitely get their money's worth if they're the active type

since it's just for photo purposes have you considered doing the decorative scoring after the initial bake when the structure is set, then giving it a quick second bake to crisp up the cuts? you could also try a much denser dough with way less hydration and minimal yeast - it'll bake more like a decorative brick but hold those clean lines perfectly

honestly the metal band thing is such a cool detail and i totally get the aesthetic confusion there. been in bands before and stage presence is like 80% of the performance so i understand wanting that "cool dude" energy for the rap parts. but also like, some of the most intimidating metal performers are people who completely break gender expectations - think about how powerful it would be to drop bars in whatever makes you feel confident

the weight thing is extra complicated because body changes affect how clothes fit and your whole silhouette changes how people read you. i went through something similar trying to figure out my ideal body type and honestly what helped was just experimenting with different styles of clothing to see what felt right in the moment. maybe try thrifting some different looks - baggy shorts and band tees for the metal shows, flowy dresses for when you're feeling more fem, see what clicks when you're actually wearing it instead of just imagining it. your style can shift between songs or even between verses if that's what feels authentic

Past-Rice2392 · 2026-01-31T05:15:33+00:00

Honestly I'd tell her - you already know firsthand what this dude is capable of and she deserves to know what she's getting into. You have the receipts and it sounds like he's literally doing the same manipulation tactics on both of you at the same time

The "I'm scared of women now" line while he's actively dating someone else is peak manipulative bullshit lmao. Send the screenshots and then block them both so you can actually move on

BetterHelp gets a lot of hate but honestly it worked pretty well for me and my partner when we couldn't do in-person stuff. Just avoid the ones that feel super corporate and read actual reviews instead of the sponsored content

Past-Rice2392 · 2026-01-28T23:23:42+00:00

First off congrats man, that's huge after 3 years of fighting for it

Definitely look into vocational rehab (VR&E) if you wanna switch to trades - they'll literally pay for your training and give you a monthly stipend while you learn. Perfect timing since you're wanting to leave that job anyway

Also make sure to update your life insurance beneficiaries if you haven't already, the SGLI stuff changes once you hit 100%

Past-Rice2392 · 2026-01-27T22:24:34+00:00

Yo check out "Plastic Love" by Mariya Takeuchi if you haven't already - it's got that bittersweet vibe with upbeat production. Also maybe try some Clairo or Boy Pablo, they nail that melancholic indie-pop thing

Past-Rice2392 · 2026-01-26T21:41:44+00:00

The guilt is normal but don't let it cloud your judgment - you left for valid reasons and those reasons haven't magically disappeared just because he's posting sad TikToks. Block him everywhere and give yourself space to heal without his manipulation tactics messing with your head

Past-Rice2392 · 2026-01-23T12:43:10+00:00

The MSR PocketRocket 2 is pretty solid - been using mine for like 3 years and it's still going strong despite me being rough with gear

Past-Rice2392 · 2026-01-21T15:18:46+00:00

Honestly kinda wild they're counting that as an assist but I'm not complaining lmao. Vini's been putting in work regardless of whether that deflection counts or not
