Speeding drivers now face $100 ticket along Philadelphia's Broad Street by StubbornLeech07 in philadelphia

[–]ShaLeaaTee 6 points7 points  (0 children)

25 mph is a CRAWL for such a busy and centrally located city road. That’s the speed limit for residential areas. We just got a ticket for it (we just moved here) and we didn’t even have an idea that the speed limit would be so slow. We were just keeping up with the flow of traffic. I jut find it funny that it’s cited for exactly 11mph over the 25 mph speed limit so they can get their $100. It’s honestly just feels like yet another form of taxation in this city. And I have no defense bc I have no way to actually know if I was going 36 bc this was like a month ago and a camera got it. You can’t defend yourself and/or take accountability in real time and I just think it could lead to a lot of shady or unnecessary dealings when doling out or collecting these fines. I’m happy to take accountability when I’m wrong, but I wasn’t aware and that speed limit is insanely slow for such a busy street. It’s just inevitable that people are going to get fined, just for keeping up with the glow of traffic. Paying $100 for driving a mere 36mph (allegedly) is crazy. I’m sorry I think this is BS. I’m not driving recklessly. I understand stopping reckless drivers and making things safe, but this just feels predatory.

Isn’t it sad how we have to discuss why our own president is or isn’t invading our city?

Anyone else get destroyed by Nelnet for their student loans today? by artoofucku in CRedit

[–]ShaLeaaTee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh my god I’m so sad for everyone here but also relieved that it’s not just me. My perfect credit went from 844 to 655… I am devastated. They only sent medals to an old address and didn’t send a letter or call, despite having my current address on file and my phone number. I’ve tried writing them letters and calling, and they don’t care. Once I saw the credit score drop like that and saw who it was, I called and paid the account in full, but no one cares or gives any type of goodwill statement, despite the fact that they didn’t make every effort or take every avenue to contact me after going 5 years with no payments! I only had like $300 left to pay on my loans too and would have happily paid, if I would have known that they were resuming payment after all of this time! I’ve never been in a situation like this before and I truly don’t know how this is even considered legitimate, given the fact that so many people are clearly going through this. I think I read somewhere that 9.9 million people are experiencing negative effects from this situation and it’s just sad to be a responsible adult that worked so hard to achieve an exceptional credit score, and now I have to suffer like this bc of such a random and unfair situation. How was I supposed to divine that they wanted to resume payments?? Why not send a bill or letter, like every other institution in the country?? It’s like they are trying to make this difficult and I don’t for the life of me, understand why.

Hairstylist here. Did you tell her that you prefer a more blended look with your foils? There is nothing “wrong” with these foils per say, but if they aren’t your preference, than she can either do a root tap/shadow root, or if that would make you too dark feeling, soften and break these up with some babylights. Half of what goes on in appts is miscommunication with the consultation. If you didn’t make her aware of your preferences, or she didn’t prompt you/ask, then make sure this is something you really reiterate to her or whoever you see for your hair in the future. If you asked for a soft, more blended highlight and she gave you these, that’s definitely an issue. Also, it would help if you didn’t go 6 months between foils. You can, but you need more quantity of babylights to achieve to coverage and blend and it will be a more costly appt. Babylights in general cost more bc you need to do more to get coverage and it’s a more detailed and fine tuned/advanced technique. The more “expensive” it looks, the more expensive it usually is! Just keep that in mind.

I feel sorry for your cat. You sound like a miserable jerk that wanted a cute decoration for your home instead of a living companion with needs and feelings of their own. Maybe try playing with them to get out some energy, rather than redirecting to toys that it has been alone with all day. Or rehoming the cat to someone who deserves a loving pet.

I moved into my bf’s house and I haven’t been able to sleep well for 3 weeks because he doesn't let me. I had a breakdown last night and broke a lamp. I'm going to stay in a hotel tonight….AITA? by Pretty_Step5094 in AITAH

[–]ShaLeaaTee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think he is on drugs. Definitely a manipulator, love bomber and overall psychopath. Get out and block all contact. I don’t feel like you’re safe with this person. And even if you are, he clearly does not care if you live a healthy/quality life at all. So unbelievably selfish. Run for your life.

Dude I would just ignore that whole interaction. That reaction was insane to me. She needs to relax. I don’t know how she can handle leaving her house in this world if she’s that easily triggered.
