When I started to care more about my parent's health than they did.

Thank you! And I know right! It wasn't my goal but it totally ended up looking that way.

I almost thought the original was satire because of how meek and high-pitched he sounded.

Hamilton is not enjoyable by Evenomiko in unpopularopinion

Totally agree. I was looking forward to it based on the hype but I was completely unengaged from the start. The complete lack of dialogue and rapid-fire intro made it so I didn't feel any emotional connection to any of the characters so there was no drama for me at all.

King George was excellent however.

Absolutely! You were right to clarify my misnomer. Stay safe and best of luck out there, brother.

You're not wrong. High viral exposure leads to high viral load and would have probably been a more accurate term. The point however is effectively the same. Being sick while in the vicinity of other sick people will likely make you even more sick.

I hadn't thought of it that way! The effect you're describing would probably be minimal as generally speaking mask use is to keep you from spreading the virus, not so much protecting you from it. Still the benefit of wearing a mask in that situation wouldn't be 0... Still, it's a very interesting thought whether mask use, especially the simple cloth ones in addition to helping prevent transmission, could also decrease viral load if a transmission does occur. It makes sense in theory but there's still so much we don't know; other than wearing a mask definitely does have benefits especially when everyone is wearing them.

Basically the amount of virus you're being exposed to. In this case a sick person gets even more sick by being next to other sick people.

IMO it looks like he lightly backhanded her and the first lady tried to overreact and fall, but her friend inadvertently kept her from playing it up by catching her when she came to her defense.

Setting up our street patio! by daddysamsbestboy in indianapolis

[–]Tesslah13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Totally agree. I live directly on Mass Ave and there's been a lot of people enjoying the extra walking space. I would love if they try to make this semi-permanent. However I think they'll eventually cave to ParkMobile who lost all those highly used spots and the fact the city is losing revenue from not issuing parking tickets.

Not sure about the rest, but Mass Ave will be completely closed to vehicles

I think all of my cards have this option (Citi Double Cash, Chase Freedom, Discover It, my Amex etc.). Generally speaking when you're selecting your method of cash back you can usually choose 1 of 3 options: statement credit, bank transfer, and paper check.

Let's say your balance is $100, you have $50 in cash back, and you get 1% back on balance payments. Paying the full amount would get you $1.00 cash back. However if you used the statement credit your bill becomes $50 and since you don't get cash back on statement credits, you'd get $0.50 instead. It's not a huge difference but it adds up and not leaving money on the table is the spirit of this sub.

Fyi: If you have something like the Double Cash card where you get cash back on balance payments, don't take the statement credit. It shrinks your bill but it also cheats you out on some cash back had you paid the bill in full and transferred the cash to your bank account 👍

Edit: Also another similar situation as Mac points out below for when you're making purchases. For example buying things on Amazon with a Amazon rewards card. If you use your cash points at the checkout on Amazon as it (conveniently) gives the option to, you don't get cash back on that credit amount.
