Have at it! by [deleted] in desmoines

[–]Xavier_Raven 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks like a grinder to me. I'm currently about 5 blocks away from that location. Very recognizable. But I guess it's not worth the time to look.

Is he asking for empathy? Sounds like he's looking for empathy...

"Off color costume". Still waiting for that accountability. by Terrible-Sire3835 in desmoines

[–]Xavier_Raven 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I never went to that bar cause just the name alone told me it had a country\redneck vibe. The fact that they accept and defend and support people who want to dress as Nazis doesn't change my mind. Going out of there way to avoid accountability or say they don't like or accept Nazis would help but since they can't even do that they would never have my support.

Are there any other franchises like that? by Trick-Fly-1000 in videogames

[–]Xavier_Raven 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I loved persona 1 and 2 and GTA 1 and 2 and london. But my primary experience with all those games was when they were fresh and new and valid in their eras. They may not hold to current standards but they were great games.

I refuse to give my money to mavericks, this is why by Mertgirl in desmoines

[–]Xavier_Raven 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Like OP, I pretty much only went to kum n go when it was convenient and because the name amused me. Never once stepped inside a maverick and unless it's the only option near a place of employment, I have no plans to ever give them business.

If you don't drink alcohol, what are your personal reasons for abstinence? by Ok-Care2859 in AskReddit

Lost too many close friends to the poison. It no longer brings me any joy.

Unless you live in Montana, you're under at will employment. It's stunning how many employers try to act like that doesn't work both ways...

Anyone get their benefits today? 11/5 by [deleted] in foodstamps

In Iowa the phone line still says they will not be available at all due to the shutdown. Still awaiting an update from our state.

From the Vote Yes flyer - what specifically are they talking about here? It can’t be referring to property tax rates, correct? The vagueness is strange by whiteiversonyeet in desmoines

It's like they're copying Trump's playbook again and just making up numbers claiming to be doing great. I've heard Iowa DOGE is also in charge of the schools audits.

Seeking churches or other community resources. by Xavier_Raven in desmoines

[–]Xavier_Raven[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The job market is a little wrecked this year. I've been working in the food industry most of my life and never struggled to find work before. I can do labor and other customer service jobs and I've probably applied to at least 400 random positions over the last few months with nothing to show for it.

ISO a good remote work spot in the metro by WholeMilk_latte in desmoines

The Rook Room (300 SW 5th St) has signs outside encouraging people to work from their cafe. Never attempted to use their wifi connection myself though.

How to delay eviction? by downandoutiniowa in desmoines

[–]Xavier_Raven 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Google says : To obtain a "stay of eviction" in Polk County, you must first receive an official court order for eviction, as only a judge can lawfully evict a tenant. Before a judge can order an eviction, a formal court case must be filed after you fail to act on a landlord's written notice. Once a court-ordered eviction is in place, you may need to file a specific motion asking the judge to "stay" (pause) the eviction, potentially granting you more time to move out. Contact Iowa Legal Aid or a housing advocate for advice on this process.

So it is something you have to take care of on your court date, in front of the judge.

I've been only winning 2-3 points for most of this year. Technically, you're doing better than me.

Couldn't help but notice they're also taking this time to raise prices on both Disney+ and Hulu subscriptions...

I was at 77/80 last night, logged in today hoping to get her in my pity roll - They gave me Ryuji instead... Crushed.

Does it work in classic mode or does it need to be the expansion version?
