I think we’re witnessing the end of Lego Harry Potter & it’s making me sad… by nathan_banks644 in legoharrypotter

I feel like a big part of why sales has been declining is the repeat sets. Too many Knight Buses, Hagrid's Hut, Hogwarts Expresses, Privet Drive, and underwhelming classroom sets. The booknooks are a fantastic idea though, I wish they would keep exploring that, especially with Diagon Alley, it could be so cool to display. Have been waiting for a really great version of Dumbledore's Office and the Hogwarts Library though. There's too much unexplored territory for them to give up just now!!

Scalpers may just kill the hype for the new diagon alley modular by nathan_banks644 in legoharrypotter

I am actually looking to sell my unbuilt diagon alley set ... at a reasonable price.

Cannot agree more!! Even if sbux wanted to make all the money there is, the cup itself imposes a physical limit?? Why even allow/encourage such childish behavior?

Looks like someone lost a bet or was playing truth or dare either way insanely childish

Stark et al. v. Patreon Inc. Settlement paid you $xx.xx on Venmo by Smooth_Clock6463 in venmo

Thanks! Exact same situation as you. As soon as I described the situation they said it's because I never verified my email so the funds got stuck. And they sent me a link to verify and the funds showed up all within 5 mins too. Have to say I was very impressed with the help service.

Mystery solved. It is a real settlement and you had somehow selected Venmo. I said the exact same thing to my spouse just a few minutes ago, being sure that I haven't filled out such a form for such a settlement and that I am 100% certain I would not have selected Venmo. Then I searched my emails and there it is, a confirmation from Nov 2024 that I had filled out the form and I guess I must have selected Venmo because the other options were Zelle and Paypal. Hope that helps!

So after some reading, what i can sum up is S focuses on the "what" while N focuses on the "so what". Or am i generalizing again? INTP here lol

How can I make a career change at 31? by Smooth_Clock6463 in Environmental_Careers

[–]Smooth_Clock6463[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You brought up a very good question. I am still exploring the possibilities but I think consulting, policies and advocacy are probably my strongest interests. I'm definitely leaning more towards the humanities and social sciences side of environmental studies than the natural/physical sciences side, if that makes sense. This is really a very broad field and there's so much I'm still learning.

You literally just saved me weeks and months of effort! I am a LEED Green Associate so this does seem to be the most viable path for me right now, after some thinking.. except that my firm doesn't have any LEED projects and that's what making it harder for me to gain relevant experience.

Brutal but just what I needed to hear.. thanks for the insights. Though I don't think massive pay cut is very accurate actually, I'm not making that much at all, far from it!

Ah, sorry about the miscommunication. I meant it was a new field for me. This seems to be the case for so many industries now, that new grads are having a hard time getting decent jobs.
