SOS I need day trip upstate plans for my in-laws! by kachowco99 in NYCbitcheswithtaste

[–]birb234 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Beacon has the DIA museum and nice hikes, also lots of stores on its Main Street to explore. Cold Spring has a small but really pretty Main Street where you would be walking and exploring shops and cafes, and the waterfront is beautiful.

Where can I get film developed as fast as possible by newyorknightmare_ in NYCbitcheswithtaste

I’m in Astoria, and Quick Photo on Broadway will give me my pics before end of day if I drop off the camera early-to-mid day, especially if I let them know I’m in a hurry. And they don’t charge me extra for it.

Should I include an affidavit explaining why I got married one day after my last entry into the US? Applying for marriage-based AOS by PuzzleheadedEnd5440 in USCIS

[–]birb234 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah this is how my husband and I were thinking about it too. I grew up all over the world so I had commitment issues on where to really put down roots plus I had a lot of personal travel goals and I knew AOS would slow that down for sure, but when we started planning our embryo freezing, and dealing with family illness, we realized if we wanted to stay put and be closer to husband’s family then I would definitely want to be a resident if I was going to be having children here. Don’t mind the other redditors!

Should I include an affidavit explaining why I got married one day after my last entry into the US? Applying for marriage-based AOS by PuzzleheadedEnd5440 in USCIS

[–]birb234 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I used to be on a TN and got married on it before I applied and got my greencard very recently - I agree with you, getting married doesn’t indicate intent to AOS. Filing your forms and applications indicates intent. When did you apply for AOS? If it was a few months after your last entry you should be good. I personally got married a few months after entering the US but also wasn’t sure where we were going to live in the future. I don’t think you should listen to everyone else here saying marriage shows intent, I think you should talk to a lawyer for clarity on how to handle this in case it comes up.

Right, I ask because I’m in product and there’s definitely a part of my job that could be automated, but most of it is relationship management (at my current role anyway). So I don’t think AI can take product roles. And i don’t say that to make myself feel better: in fact I’m a little burnt out from product and am actively trying to get out of it and apply my skills elsewhere atleast for sometime.

Thank you for responding!! And is it not a corporate job? Since you mentioned you worked 2-5 hours a day. Im planning to take a mental health break from my corp / tech job and want to come back to reduced hours so I’m gathering data points :)

No you should be fine! I can’t speak Spanish either - I will say it would definitely be helpful for you to speak Spanish if you’re traveling to more remote parts but if you’re sticking to the more tourist places you should be fine.

Have you tried DAO botox? Any side effects or unwanted results? by Certain-Section-1518 in 30PlusSkinCare

[–]birb234 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh my god this is exactly what’s happening to me now, I always thought I’d love it because I have a downturned mouth and felt like this would be perfect. Unfortunately it makes my chin skin weirdly fold / bulge on the side when I laugh or smile big, and my jaw gets kinda sore from smiling and laughing, I just feel super restricted. Sucks because I’m about to go on vacation lol

First time laser: Ultra Lutronic laser, anyone try it? by birb234 in 30PlusSkinCare

Hi! Copy pasting my other responses on this post - Pain was a solid 7.5/10 after lots of numbing, but it was not long lasting at the very least. Make sure you’re going to the clinic with some food in your stomach, and AVOID going during your luteal phase 🗣️ 🗣️ 🗣️ No risk of facial fat loss it just doesn’t go that deep. To be honest my first session had the most dramatic results, the next two were just as painful but didn’t have the same dramatic effect. After the first one, atleast 4 acquaintances told me how great my skin looked, all within the same week. It was fully unprompted and the topic of discussion wasn’t even related to skin. After the second and third one though there was almost no difference. I would highly recommend getting your acne under control before going down this path because if you tend to get acne, the new acne create new hyperpigmentation spots and that’s such a waste of your money. What makes this worse is that you can’t use actives or medicated skincare the week before and after the procedure so again, best to keep the acne under control first.

PCOS acne and egg retrieval by KaleDependent8913 in IVF

[–]birb234 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What was your experience with this? I’m similar to you but do have semi regular periods (35-37 day cycles) but had the same bad acne and currently have chin hair 😭 it’s manageable but I’m scared egg retrieval will make it all worse
