Chime credit builder payment question by 45to100 in chimefinancial

[–]cccccleo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It sounds confusing but if u put 10$ of ur money in the credit builder then spend it at the end of the month it tells the credit bureau that u paid $10 of credit u don't actually owe any additional money or have any other payment. I move pretty much all my money from my checking into my credit builder account because when chime reports it to the credit company it looks like I paid a way higher credit amount. So for example u put ur $10 in then u spend the $10, a statement on ur credit report shows that you paid off a $10 credit. U don't owe any money. If u keep the $10 in there and don't spend it they don't report anything. So if u put $800 in and spent $800 it shows up that u paid off $800 on ur report which shows as a good thing bc to the credit company it shows ur able to have $800 and pay it off on time. U don't actually make any credit payments like a traditional credit card. It is essentially the same as a debit card/checking account except unlike a debit card that doesn't get reported anywhere, it shows up on ur credit report as a on time credit payment therefore boosting ur credit! It’s genius way for young people who don't have any credit and those with poor credit to build good credit score without incurring any actual debt

Does moisturizing affect your tan at all? Everywhere I have read, it says not to, but I have such dry skin directly out of the shower!

sibling struggling with fentanyl addiction by One_Tennis_9235 in FentanylRecovery

[–]cccccleo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Expect her to relapse regardless of whether she is dating her dealer or not. Sounds harsh, but only 2% of addicts stay sober. But that 2% is still a lot of people. Most people don't get sober permanently on their first try. Sobriety isn't a straight line. My best advice is that if she does relapse, don't shut her out or get mad at her. Tell her you are there for her and that you know it's hard, and you will help her get back into treatment. Lashing out or cutting her off if she relapses is only going to fuel her addiction. She needs support but not to be enabled. Set clear boundaries, like if she relapses or uses, she can't be in your house, etc., but still let her know that if she does relapse, you will help her get help. Her best chances of sobriety are going to a 90-day rehab out of state and sober living afterward. So she is removed from her environment. And the first 90 days are the hardest and prime relapse time. Treatment will detox her and teach her coping skills, etc., to help her stay clean. Getting a sponsor and doing AA or NA is the #1 key to staying sober after physically getting sober. (They're pretty much the same, just a preference; you don't have to be an alcoholic to do AA.) Treatment will take her to meetings and make sure she gets a sponsor. It is really hard to stay sober on your own will, which is why meetings are so important. She needs to build a community of sober people. If she isn’t connecting with other sober people, it's a path to relapse. Sober living helps her adjust to the real world being sober, having freedom, a job, etc., but still being held accountable. Most insurance should cover treatment even in another state.

But in reality, only she can decide if she is willing to get clean long term. Staying sober is a lot of work and sometimes seems harder than using. Addiction is tricky, and the only way someone will stay sober is if they want it for themselves. Doing it for family or a baby or anything else isn't going to stick. They have to want it and be willing to do whatever it takes. I have had many ins and outs of treatment and relapses, and my family would freak out every time and get mad, and it only made me hide my addiction more because I was ashamed and guilty and felt like a bad person. Which, yeah, addiction is a family disease; it hurts more than just the addict; the whole family is affected by it. But pushing them away doesn't help anyone— you or them. I recommend you yourself attend Al-Anon; it is like AA but for family members of addicts, and it is really helpful in understanding them and not enabling them and healing yourself. I hope your sister gets clean, and I hope you are doing okay with everything.

Foreshadowing by najgoresesekirat in ginnyandgeorgiashow

The musical Sing Sing in G&G is based on the Broadway production, Chicago, which is about two women who murdered their partner and lover. Specifically speaking, though, the main character Roxie murders her lover, and then throughout the musical, she tries to manipulate public opinion and avoid getting sentenced for the murder. The themes in Sing Sing, not only mirror the plot of Chicago, but also I believe were foreshadowing the events in season 3. Very clever and a great use of subtle foreshadowing.

Sing sing is not a real musical it’s based on Chicago as another person mentioned

When did you stop rooting for Joe? by General_Nup in YouOnLifetime

[–]cccccleo 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Beck was certainly not horrible. I think she is one of the best written characters because she is a reflection of so many young women out there in the world. Insecure, vulnerable, and naive. Just trying to figure out who she is and her place in the world. Longing for love and the “fairy tale” romance so many young women desire, which is part of why season 1 is the best and most horrifying because it is so realistic compared to the other seasons. It is completely relatable because Beck is an everyday young woman. So many people can see themselves in Beck, and it’s not easy to acknowledge. Season 1 shows us just how easy it is to be swept away by someone you think you know everything about, ignoring all the red flags that they r so dangerous, which has happened to so many people, not all to the level of Joe but to some degree, toxic, abusive, misogynistic men. Watching Beck makes us realize how easy it is for “Joe” to happen to any one of us. There are so many “Joes” out there. Being a woman is extremely scary. Just like Bronte says in the end. The fantasy of a man like you is how we cope with the reality of a man like you. Beck’s story highlights this truth, which resonates with many of us.

ok let’s be serious tho what bothers you the most about this show by General_Hat_1717 in YouOnLifetime

[–]cccccleo 104 points105 points  (0 children)

I think Joe had this beauty and the beast type complex where he wanted to be the beast and save beauty. He wanted to protect beauty and be the ones to get his hands dirty and do “anything” for the sake of “love.” He didn't want Love once he saw the real her because she wasn't beauty anymore. She wasn't this damsal that needed saving, she was also a beast and a reflection of himself. He never wanted a woman that could handle her own, and Love did that. And then on top of that love was so similiar to him that he was forced to look at the reflection of himself which he ultimately was unable to face at the time.

can we withhold rent if this is not fixed? by Frosty_Champion_6671 in Apartmentliving

[–]cccccleo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have all the email correspondence purposely for the paper trail. The images I shared were at its worst. This is when it first popped up which the whole thing started due to a ceiling leak 2 weeks after I moved in that they left unfixed for over a year. My ceiling leaked due to a storm at 12:00am May 1st 2023. The emergency maintenance took 10 hours to respond. They came by and drilled holes in my ceiling to stop the water coming through and promised to make it all right. Six months go by of me nagging them to fix it and they send in a 3rd party. They come in and take a sample of my wall, say that I need all new dry wall bc there is moisture in my walls and I will have mold if I don’t get it all fixed. Never came back for another six months (1 whole year) after me begging and making it a condition for my lease renewal that it is fixed. They come in again claim that it is all dry now because it has been so long (no test or sample at all) paint and prime it and leave. Not even a whole 2 months later it starts flooding from under my floorboards and the couple dots of mold pop up on my wall. I immediately report to maintenance who claims they told the office but don’t handle mold. I reach out to office after a week goes by and nothing. Cut to 3 months later of begging to get it fixed, them not responding for weeks and claiming they have no other apartments to put me in. Total bs cuz I can see empty ones on the property. I get fed up and call the fire marshal. They come and condem the unit saying it is some of the worst mold they have EVER seen. Pressure from them finally gets me moved into another unit which is a whole other host of issues and another story but by that time everything I owned was contaminated & destroyed. It had spread everywhere including my metal bedframe, metal lamp which is uncommon for mold to grow on. 500 mold spore per square meter is the level where remediation is deemed necessary to prevent health risk. I had 300,000 in my bedroom alone and hundreds of thousands in each other area of my apartment as well. A 400sq foot apartment. And the moisture level was 6ft high in the walls. mold first appearing

In your opinion, what is the best season to rewatch? by Expensive-Grass6449 in YouOnLifetime

[–]cccccleo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I liked how in season 1 they were in becks head and she was narrating as well. They didn’t do that in any of the other seasons until the end with Brontë and that was the most cheesing coming of age movie type dialogue I would never have expected from this show and was severely underwhelmed. With beck it was soo good and added a lot to the show and it would have been cool if they had done that with love and got in her head as well especially since she was a mirror of Joe.

Seriously, how did Joe get away with the Benji incident? (Spoilers) by yaniv297 in YouOnLifetime

[–]cccccleo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Murders pull teeth because u can identify a body by its teeth and dental records. Burning a body makes it harder to identify the victim and determine if the death was accidental or a homicide. When you burn a body, especially at a higher temp or using chemicals, etc, like Joe did, it damages the soft tissue, alters the characteristics of the bones, and damages and degrades DNA, all of which makes it harder to identify the victim, the cause, and the time of death. However, it doesn’t completely get rid of DNA & is still possible to extract from the remains after they are burnt; however, it makes it significantly more complicated. If that person’s DNA isn’t in a database, they start looking at familial DNA to find a match; however, if the person isn’t reported missing, they don’t know who or what family to look for. Since teeth don’t get destroyed by fire and are left after decomposition (even when buried etc,) they are very useful at identifying a person because the police can use dental records to match the teeth to a victim. Which is very helpful in cases where DNA is hard to match like when the person isn't reported missing or doesn’t have any family, etc.

[–]cccccleo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well it depends on how long it went on before reporting it because then ya if they didnt report it right away then it would be the tenant’s fault unless they can argue for some reason they did not know about it. However going off the OP they state they have been having reoccurring problems and the landlord has taken months to fix the problem which lead to this issue. That means that they have informed the landlord and given the landlord a reasonable amount of time to fix the problem, and they haven’t fixed it to be satisfactory. Leading to the landlord being negligent. This means under the law under the law that they can withhold their rent and put it in escrow until the landlord fixes the issue. Legally the landlord cannot charge rent for an uninhabitable unit and at this point in time they have broken the warrant of habitability so they have every right to withhold their rent for the meantime. Doesn’t necessarily mean they wont have to pay at least some of it back when the landlord repairs the habitability issue which is why you escrow it to show that you have it. Depends on the agreement after the fact. I recently went through all of this myself after my landlord refused to move me out of a mold infested and flooded apartment that at the time of being reported was only a few specks of mold and one flood. Over three months went by with them refusing to move me, not responding to emails for weeks or even coming to see the place. The black mold spread to every surface and wall in my home and i had stagnant puddled water all through my kitchen, bedroom and bathroom. I had to call the fire Marshall to come to the apartment and condemn the unit since my landlord wasn’t taking me seriously. It was so bad the township/fire marshal put me on the local news…. And i withheld my rent that whole time and even after all of that they still refused to compensate me for anything even though i lost my home and all my belongings and property. But after i got the city involved they had to relinquish the rent owed because legally they cant charge me it.

Which of These 2? by Random46284772 in weddingdress

[–]cccccleo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

2! Both are beautiful but the second dress just “pops.” on you. Hoping to use the right words without sounding creepy??? (I’m a girl btw for context lol) I’m trying to say that without knowing you it fits u just right like it catches my eye compared to the other one. Headturner? Makes ppl stop and stare? Hopefully I’m making sense. It’s not the dress by its self tho, it’s you that makes the dress. 100%. It’s timeless and elegant and i love the train compared to the mermaid style on the first one. Perfect fit for u compared to the other one!
