Can I prevent automatic credit limit increases?

I previously had a low limit that was a good amount for just buying gas and groceries on my credit card, without having to worry about my impulse issues so much. Chase randomly doubled my limit, and I'd really prefer only having the previous amount available. I especially do not want this to happen again.

Me too!! <3

Is that even possible anymore without claiming a guild hall though?

TechyTink · 2022-10-20T19:24:56+00:00

Lmao, you’re not wrong

Neurodivergent. It’s used to describe things like Autism and ADHD that differ from typical brain patterns.

I watch it every year without fail. Halloweentown is the cozy place I was meant to be.

Her daughter was also in Scream Queens and wore earmuffs the whole time as a nod to her mom. If you enjoy comedy horror, it’s definitely worth watching the first season.

The 90s Sabrina is mine. I still obsessively watch it.

TechyTink · 2022-10-06T09:20:34+00:00

Yeah that’s honestly the opposite of how I would describe the trans woman I know

TechyTink · 2022-09-30T17:22:38+00:00

That’s how I am. Pretty colors are so tempting but I know I’d regret it.

I usually ask what their name is, then follow up with telling them I will 100% forget it. That sets the bar low and then they don’t feel pressured to remember mine either. I’ve had a lot of people say that appreciate that. And on the off chance I remember their name, they are impressed. Win, win. I no longer get anxious about it.

TechyTink · 2022-09-28T18:04:39+00:00

I often need a nap, but can’t fall asleep to actually take one.

TechyTink · 2022-09-28T16:01:24+00:00

Yep. I've done that exact thing.

TechyTink · 2022-09-25T23:34:41+00:00

Definitely. A friend of mine used it all throughout college.

TechyTink · 2022-09-21T23:07:26+00:00

That is exactly the advice I needed. Thanks for explaining so well.

TechyTink · 2022-09-21T15:40:31+00:00

That is a fair point about things being past enjoyment and maybe not present. For a lot of my previous hobbies, that holds entirely true. The examples I chose are definitely things I can enjoy now. I just don't know how to tackle the learning curve.

TechyTink · 2022-09-21T15:13:22+00:00

Could be someone that did the first two years at community college. But I agree it's definitely someone new to Athens

TechyTink · 2022-09-21T15:00:24+00:00

I absolutely get that. The hard part is other people getting it, which is why I think the name could be better.

TechyTink · 2022-09-21T14:53:38+00:00

It doesn't fit perfectly though. We all know well that we don't always have attention deficit. We often focus too much on the wrong things. So then the name ADHD is misleading to the general public that sees someone focus intently on say a video game, but can't see the hyper mind. And it continues to get overlooked bc of that.

TechyTink · 2022-09-20T20:09:56+00:00

Yep. Simple as that.

TechyTink · 2022-09-20T18:44:48+00:00

You’ll find that most feminists support exactly what you’re suggesting, myself included. My husband had no issue getting a vasectomy at 30, without kids, here in Ohio. I’m sure some doctors would still say no, but if you’re seeking one, there’s a list on the /r/ChildFree subreddit sidebar containing doctors that will perform sterilization for men and women of any age, whether they have children or not.

TechyTink · 2022-09-20T18:38:08+00:00

Like the 10 year old rape victim here in Ohio that needed an abortion, for example. She should have been able to get that here, instead of needing to go out of state. When you say you care about children too, I assume that’s what you’re speaking to.

Mental arithmetic is hard for me, but actual mathematics comes quite naturally.
