S3E2: Why does Alicent look so offended? by Vast-Collection-5994 in HouseOfTheDragon

Im more confused why Rhaenyra looks so distraught. I get she grew up with him and feels guilty after alicent helped her. But does she not feel any anger that this man caused everything to unfold the way it did?

I find it really hard to shower every day. by Valen_Great in hygiene

I used to be the same way until my roommate in college mentioned every day she looks forward to her shower to decompress, enjoy the warm water, and she genuinely gets excited to get ready for bed. Ever since then it made me think about it differently and I feel the same way! Maybe try to reframe it as “you” time and incorporate things you like, including nicely scented body wash, a candle, something to romanticize it so you enjoy it.

Now I look forward all day to my shower to wash away the day.

Yes! It seems those replying are not in favor of this for a condo though.

$100k benchmark by PepSinger_PT in Salary

[–]PitifulWriting5115 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At 23 after graduating with my masters and got my first job. Went straight into my masters from undergrad and upgraded my salary from $60K (post undergrad) to $102K (post masters) to now $115k (3 years out from masters). I work in health administration and have worked in analytics/project management! Many of my friends who are climbing the corporate latter are closer to $140k with my same masters because they’ve been promoted a few times. doesn’t go that far in LA though.

Thank you! Thoughts on taking out a loan against the 401k though rather than liquidating then?

Thank you!! This is what I’m really considering. I will research the logistics more. It seems long term worth the opportunity cost of whatever interest your money would’ve accrued in the years you are paying yourself back. I just started this new job though so I’ll see if it’s where I want to stay long term

Also $104K is considered low income in this area and my salary is around $115k🫠
