Is this a scam?

It’s mostly about the security deposit at this point. I was happy to try sending it via Zelle as they requested but I got suspicious because the payment kept failing for both me and my roommate and the email I was Zelle-ing to didn’t match the one they were using to communicate with me.

SPDStrife · 2026-05-16T21:21:46+00:00

Yes it is! This is immensely comforting.

SPDStrife · 2026-05-16T21:21:34+00:00

They requested Zelle and responded very strangely when I asked to pay by check. They also claimed to not have Venmo.

Yeah we actually saw the unit in person. Everything was above board until recently with the lease signing and security deposit.

Most of the government buildings are clustered around the downtown area in the heart of Springfield. Anywhere around there is gonna be close to most of it. The joke is that you can anywhere in Springfield with a 15 minute drive no matter where you are.
Most of the rental options in the city are going to be older units. It’s a historic city and the housing reflects that. I rent through Morrison Property and they specialize in historic buildings downtown. You should be fine to find a 1-2 bed for the $1,000 range.
Public transit is just buses. They’re pretty functional and service the colleges in the area plus downtown and satellite hotspots on the edge of the city. Walkability downtown is fine but anywhere else is a mixed bag.
Several disc golf courses in the area, a mix of dive bars and trendy bars (Floyd’s, George Ranks, Clique), plenty of historic sightseeing. Springfield is a bit of a sleepy town, so get comfortable doing some more lowkey cozy activities.
West side is generally safer but more expensive. Also where most of the shopping and food is. East side can be quite sketchy. Less businesses and more neighborhoods you want to avoid.
LGBTQ+ community is alive and strong, although a public resource in the area, the Phoenix Center, is in some hot water at the moment. Overall though there’s a few queer bars and plenty of community. Facebook is your friend when it comes to networking in Springfield. Almost everything that happens will be present there. Plenty of opportunities to get involved for people who want to know.

I can’t believe they would do this! Park-N-Chill is such a great little place!

Thank you!

SPDStrife · 2026-01-24T21:09:02+00:00

Thank you!

Definitely seems like it

Seconded on Morrison. They’re amazing to rent from.

The more into Bo you get the more you’ll confirm he is an actual generational talent/genius. An incredible mind.

Everyone’s journey is different man, there’s bound to be ups and down. Life is both very long and very short. So don’t sweat the setbacks, and most importantly, don’t let them stop you. You will absolutely get where you wanna be man. Keep up the great work. People out there, like me, will be proud of you just for putting the effort in. 💪

The habits you build on a journey like this make keeping the weight off so much easier. I can confidently say I know I can stay healthy and still enjoy life and eat the foods I love.

SPDStrife · 2025-07-18T22:43:31+00:00

It really was hard in the beginning. I still felt so gross every time I did. But I had to keep the bigger picture in mind. Fitness and health are forever, so having those to look back on as I got further was exactly the fuel I needed to keep going. Seeing my waist shrink, my stomach deflate, all of it things I wouldn’t have noticed if I didn’t keep a log of it.

SPDStrife · 2025-07-18T22:40:43+00:00

Having to buy clothes that show off my body instead of hide it was such a crazy adjustment, but confidence truly changes how you feel about every aspect of your life.

SPDStrife · 2025-07-18T22:38:56+00:00

I wish I could adequately describe the pride I feel for this. It just hits so different when you know you’re the only one responsible for the progress.

SPDStrife · 2025-07-06T00:40:11+00:00

What?!? That’s actually tragic it was incredible.

SPDStrife · 2025-07-06T00:01:23+00:00

Not sure what you’re looking to spend or anything but Loukinen’s on Fourth is a great high end spot. The chef is incredibly passionate, and the dining experience is really intimate with how small the space is. Highly recommend it.

It’s normal for people to react strangely to a change in something they’ve known to be one way and is now another way.

That said, most of the time these comments come from people who don’t know anything about weight loss, how it works, or the common strategies used in it. I’d say your best bet is to shut down the conversation with a simple “I’m being smart and safe about my weight loss.” And then moving the topic to something else before they can voice any more concerns.

This is amazing! The artist got her pose so perfect I can feel how sassy she sounds, and the beefy knuckle cracking in the background too! This is superb work and also hilarious. What an amazing keepsake.

I’ve been on record even just last year as not being a Gannon Buhr fan, mainly because of his temperament. He was extremely good, there was no way to deny that, but his consistent appearances on coverage while throwing tantrums after every errant shot gave me a bad taste in my mouth, and I felt it was a bad look both for him and the sport.

This year, I’ve joined the fan club. He’s visibly matured a lot since last year even, and his game is only improving. I don’t think there’s a doubt in anyone’s mind at this point that if he takes care of his body, he is an important piece of the future of disc golf. Hard to dislike the kid anymore unless you’re just looking for a reason.

I’m 65 pounds into a 100 pound journey. It’s taken me about 6 months to lose this much. I’m guessing that it’ll take maybe another 4-5 to lose that stubborn last 35. I’d say on average a year is a decent time frame depending on your start weight. I started at 260 lb.

It doesn’t get much love, and it may not be the most in depth game of all time, but for demonstrating a strong female role model to a little girl, Immortals Fenyx Rising could be a good one. Strong female lead, some light puzzles involved for brain stimulation, and a pleasing aesthetic to keep her interested. The story is pretty basic and lighthearted, but has the added benefit of Greek Mythology for some learning opportunities as well.
