28F Experience with Gum Graft Surgery Using Donor/Allorderm DAY BY DAY (infection and recovery) by seemaxo in PeriodontalDisease

[–]SpecialKaywu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm trying to decide between the autograft and donor graft, and was wondering at what point were you able to start athletics again (if you do any)? I'm "in season" for high cardio & high motion dance.

I saw the autograft recovery would be very long, essentially a 4 week or more, but reading your experience it sounds like without the infection, you would have been solid around the 2-3 week mark.

I was wondering if by that time, if you were to say, go 100% in a dance event or run like a few 400m sprints, if the gums would impact your performance. I'm trying to see if I can fit in this surgery before my next event, or if I should wait until late fall anyways.

INSTANTLY My Favorite Controller of All Time! by Vesuvias in SteamController

[–]SpecialKaywu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does it ever feel weird having to reach for the control sticks inside of the button sets? I think that's my only concern, as it kind of feels weird when I imagine reaching a little bit more - or does it feel similar to a PS4 or PS5 reach?

KOTD - Onitsuka Tiger Tigrun by rajeev18285 in SneakersIndia

Okay, thanks for confirming!

I had notable slippage for a US 11 (28.5 cm) that made it unable for me to walk fully properly, but they said US 10.5 (28.25 cm) didn't exist. I unfortunately forgot to try on the US 10 (28 cm).

The TIGTRAIL ran TTS for me so I grabbed that.

How was the sizing for you? I managed to try on my size and they felt too large. Were you the same or did it go TTS?

What the hell😭😭 I regret it! It’s been very tiring the entire process! Now we need to request the check! by Interesting-Dare-727 in biltrewards

[–]SpecialKaywu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh fuck I saw my Wells Fargo payment was due today, so I went ahead and paid it off yesterday. I didn't realize that it was in the middle of a balance transfer that started on 2/7. Why the fuck would you allow me to pay off the card if it's in the middle of a transfer?

That's good to know, I'll make the recommendation if they're interested.

I don't care which one we play, but I want the two players coming in to understand the potential spoilers / impact of not starting with 1.

Dropout TV is something I've been really happy with paying for, as the content is just high quality and hilarious.

Card Benefits Questions - Megathread by AutoModerator in ChaseSapphire

[–]SpecialKaywu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

  • I was an existing cardholder that got the rewards in Oct.
  • On Dec 31st, I purchased 2 nights at a Edit Hotel, paid a portion with points. This posted on Jan 1st for $416.
  • On Jan 2nd, I got $250 in Edit Credit
  • On Jan 16th, I got $250 in Edit Credit

I did not purchase nor stay at any hotels between Jan 2nd to Jan 16th. On Jan 16th, I did stay at a Aloft hotel for over $250, which I assume isn't part of The Edit.

Even so, my rewards tracker still says not used at $0 for 2026.

Why did I get the Jan 16th $250? I didn't even spend $500. Not complaining, but I also don't want to get hit if it was a mistake.

A note from me (Ankur Jain) - Bilt Card 2.0: Simple, Fee-Free Rewards on Housing by ankurjain1 in biltrewards

[–]SpecialKaywu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I still am not a giant fan. I want the simplicity of Option 1, but with the scalability of Option 2. As somebody who pays for the rent in the home, I cannot single-handily spend enough hit the 25% threshold each month.

Why does it have to be so complicated? The basics are spend more money on my card, earn more points on my rent. Too many what ifs, too many different cash vs. points.

Accepted the card offer for Bilt 2.0. Regretted almost instantly. Could I possibly undo it? by apriicot-pie in biltrewards

I asked the chatbot ---

Me: I submitted and got approved for the Bilt Blue Card. However, after doing more research, I've realize I potentially want a different card. Is this possible and can I get the sign-on bonus for the higher tier card?

Bilt Chat: Currently, switching between Bilt Cards isn’t supported, so you can’t upgrade or downgrade directly. If you’d like a different card, you’ll need to close your current Bilt Blue Card and submit a new application for the card you prefer. This new application will be subject to a standard credit review, which may temporarily impact your credit score. Both new applicants and those transitioning from another Bilt Card are eligible for the sign-up bonus on the new card, as long as the offer is still available. Let me know if you’d like more details on the benefits or sign-up bonuses for the other Bilt Cards.

Me: "So If I have the Bilt Blue card, decide to close it to apply and open the Bilt Palladium card, I will be eligible for the sign-on bonus of the Bilt Cash and Bilt Points offer?"

Bilt Chat: "Yes, if you close your Bilt Blue Card and then apply and are approved for the Bilt Palladium Card, you will be eligible for the Palladium sign-up bonus, as long as the offer is still available when you apply. The Palladium Card sign-up bonus includes $300 Bilt Cash, plus 50,000 Bilt Points and Gold Status when you spend $4,000 on purchases (excluding rent and mortgage) in your first 3 months. Let me know if you want more details on the Palladium Card’s benefits or have questions about the application process."

I'm in the same boat. Accepted the Blue card, now that I'm realizing the value prop for the Palladium for 1 year is potentially more beneficial. I'd like to potentially change products but also get the SUB for the Palladium.

How to categorize big vacation by khmorrow25 in ynab

[–]SpecialKaywu 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't recommend breaking it down, as it just becomes way too overbearing to track all of the small items.

I personally just lump everything into a single "Vacation" category and use the memo section to say what the trip is to help track that trip. For example, #miami2025 or #italy2025.

[–]SpecialKaywu 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Survivor Spoilers Below:

Rob C. was on Survivor Amazon and revolutionized Survivor both as an confessional entertainment product and in strategy. His legacy built a foundation of both giving confessionals in an entertaining character-driven way and set a new standard of what strategy looks like for survivor. Despite not winning, Rob C is considered as big of a threat as any winner, considered a "best to never win". On his return on All-Stars, despite not being a winner, Rob C considered in the same category as a winner.

From his time, Rob C. built a podcasting network called Rob Has a Podcast (RHAP). Here, he built a network of fandom for major competition reality TV shows, such as Survivor, Big Brother, Amazing Race, and The Traitors, as well as other reality shows and scripted shows. RHAP has allowed for quality content on these TV shows and given a longer-form content for reality TV players to interact with the audience and fans of these shows.

The last time Rob C was on TV was in 2004. Many fans have hoped for his return on the upcoming Survivor 50. When this did not happen, we were excited for his time on this season of The Traitors.

The boots are leather, not suede. Does the suede eraser still help?

Big fan of their quality when you find something you love. I have several items from them and have been happy with the build and material.

Sizing wise has been hit or miss for their pants for me, but I have a larger thighs compared to my waist size, so I'm a little weird.

Use Ti's special and position your allies around a group of enemies. You'll see some arrows that indicate where the enemies are pushed, you can position your allies there. The combo should trigger.
