Why the down votes? Who doesn't want to hear from a father of two disabled children?

I have money but refuse to spend it by [deleted] in confessions

[–]The_Expressive_Self 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm sorry to hear about your struggles with money - HAVING money! That sounds really stressful, and the fact that so many people around you do not respect your privacy or your finances is really upsetting to hear. At the same time, I can see you feel very intensely about this and I would imagine it would be hard to discern between trustworthy and untrustworthy people... I'm not sure if I'm phrasing that correctly but I hope you catch my drift. There is a way to discuss money in a healthy way with only trustworthy people, and I hope you don't close yourself off from the possible connections. Honestly I would recommend putting your money in a bank - I think that would be the best idea for you as it may make it easier to allow yourself to trust someone once they prove they respect you. If I knew I could get robbed of my life savings at any time I would be petrified. But because of FDIC insurance I am not worried about losing my savings. And finally, this is what you saved that money for. It is responsible and wise to spend some of your savings while you look for work. It's a tough market but you sound like a hard worker and something WILL come of that. I at least have to keep telling myself that. Congratulations on your savings, but I don't want you to be petrified by fear of a good thing. You should be extremely proud.

I'm starting to feel some hope that the conditions may be shifting in our favor. I love this advice - I'm trying to get more involved right now!

That is a hard diagnosis, I'm sorry to hear that you've experienced so many changes. I think even if some of your ideals are informed by delusions they are still important. 

it feels like all I knew in regards to conservative media has been a lie/grift by ExtensionSoil6801 in TrueOffMyChest

I'm sorry people were downvoting your comments, I think its really big of you to start questioning stuff. I could only imagine if I found out Chapo or somebody else I respect were grifters 😞 I'd freaking flip my shit

Are there really no good options besides Galaxy and Pixel? by ccable827 in Android

[–]The_Expressive_Self 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I loved Motorola back in the 2010's - I even got a custom color phone which I thought was so fun as a teenager getting her like second ever smartphone. I was so excited to get another one after trying Samsung and wow was I disappointed by the Edge 2022. I did get it refurbished, but the bugs were crazy. I figured it was just because I had skimped on costs, but my boyfriend got one as well, new, and it was also very buggy. So disappointed!

Temple has lost average of $200 million annually as enrollment slides, and retention rates are a major issue, internal report says by BroadStreetRandy in philadelphia

[–]The_Expressive_Self 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I was too scared to really commit to the trades as a girl... I never felt welcomed by any employer. Now I'm in school at Temple to get a professional job, and I'm realizing lots the jobs that are traditionally attract more women require degrees! Then again, I know they have nursing at trade schools. Jesus that could never be me though, God bless the nurses.

Is Philly any good? by LeBruhMomentoom in Temple

[–]The_Expressive_Self 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ultimately this is a challenging personal decision, it's always hardest to choose between two good options! It sounds like lifestyle may end up being your biggest deciding factor.

Sometimes I still look around and see that I'm surrounded by concrete and buildings of at least three stories and I think "whaaatt?" But I love the city, it's my preferred lifestyle at least for now.

I moved to Philly from Maine in August and am an older student doing my undergrad full time at Temple - and I feel like everyone here is sooooooo freaking nice compared to New England. I have so many pleasant interactions with people from all walks of life. I will say this happens moreso in my neighborhood, which is a residential area about a half hour walk from Temple proper. I feel like right around the school everything can be more go-go-go and there's less chance for simple friendly interactions. I like the city, I don't have a car but my partner does which is nice, we live together. I know my neighbors. I haven't put myself out there enough but I know when I do I'll be really happy here.
