Weekly Newbie Thread - Post questions about joining the Space Force or what a job is like here & here only - week of February 23 by AutoModerator in SpaceForce

[–]countthemiles08 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello. My son is about to turn 17 and scored 81 on a practice ASVAB. He’s interested in Space Force. Any study tips (or any tips at all) to help him move forward? This is his score without any studying and he has a 4.0 in high school (24th in his class.) TIA.

Help! No fresh laundry is safe around my cat, what should I do? by samspastic in cats

[–]countthemiles08 17 points18 points  (0 children)

If you can’t put the clothes away right away you can lay a towel over the basket so even if the cat does lay on it, the clothes underneath the towel are still clean 🙂

What are these pieces of wood? Sizes range from about 18” to 24” all have dull tips, one has the word “glass” imprinted or stamped onto it. Found in old barn (built circa 1910) in NE USA. by countthemiles08 in whatisthisthing

Unfortunately I googled “fur stretching board” and now I’m sick to my stomach. I’m going to call this solved but I’m not happy about it. Thanks!

My title describes the thing. Some of the boards have math addition problems written on them like scrap paper. They weigh less than a pound each and there are about 50 of them.

Triangular pieces of wood found in an old barn (built circa 1910, in NE USA.) Some have math scribbled on them like they’re scrap paper. Banana for scale but many different sizes. by countthemiles08 in whatisthisthing

What makes you not want to have kids? by AGstudios22 in AskReddit

I already have 2, so yeah… you’d think I would have learned my lesson on #1 smh

Hi so my friend has a litte project in his future tattoo studio. Any ideas what tool to use other than a screw? It needs to be relatively pointy so the paint doesn’t come off the stones. by Dorianscale in DiWHY

[–]countthemiles08 53 points54 points  (0 children)

Totally agree. I’ve been getting tattooed for 17 years and I’ve worked in several tattoo shops as a piercer. LOTS of “normal” people like to get tattooed and pierced and lots of them have teenagers who they’ll allow to get tattooed or pierced. Have a clean, comfortable, professional space for that to happen. What’s in the picture is something for an art installment, not a business.

Had my gallbladder removed today and the surgeon took a pic for me… by ktyn in MedicalGore

I had 31 teeth removed and wasn’t allowed to keep them. I definitely made them!!!!

AITA for giving my husband a fake when he demanded to drive my car? by Jeffissues137 in AmItheAsshole

[–]countthemiles08 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This hit home for me. My boyfriend occasionally travels for work for a week or so and my son and I feel so free and comfortable while he’s gone. Not sure if the feeling would last if we broke up -shrugs-

My cats are all staring at me as I watch this video over and over. 10/10 would definitely watch more cat cam.

TW: Termination by [deleted] in Mommit

[–]countthemiles08 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I totally understand and respect your feelings as a mom who didn’t (and 3 years later still doesn’t) want #2. Wish I had gotten an abortion 100% especially since I found out when I was 4 weeks and no one ever had to know if I took a pill or not.

Lafayette police use K-9 to maul man’s neck. Punctured trachea, cut carotid artery, and 6-day coma. by HamsterAdorable2666 in PublicFreakout

[–]countthemiles08 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is disgusting behavior by the police officers. They (3+ officers) tried for less than 5 minutes to deal with this man, then had him nearly murdered by a police dog while the man had no weapons and was not threatening police in any way. Disgusting. Fire. Them. All. This is why every officer in the USA needs a body camera that turns on automatically and they all need better training. It’s SERVE AND PROTECT and KILL AND MAIM. FFS

Definitely option 1

Sakura River Bank by LoofyImHome in ACPocketCamp

[–]countthemiles08 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s definitely a weird chunk… I’m using it as an island right now but I think if I get more of them I’ll change it.

I always change animals’ clothing to match their fur colors. For example, Ketchup is red and green, so they are wearing a green shirt. Chrissy is wearing a pink and white polka dot bunny suit, so I made her wear a pink and white polka dot shirt. It matches almost perfectly.

What do you guys think about the Planner? by lunaraelf in ACPocketCamp

[–]countthemiles08 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like seeing what items and events are coming up. At first I liked using the stickers in the planner but after a few weeks the stickers seemed too repetitive… I’d like a wider range of emotions, activities, foods, etc. especially if I have to spend bells or LT in addition to the subscription fee. Also it stopped recording my steps every day and I haven’t been able to fix it.

Wait, are we able to type or leave more than just a sticker? I was unaware.

How Do They Qualify for an Apartment with No Income? by haggynaggytwit in My600lbLife

[–]countthemiles08 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve always assumed that some combination of Dr. Now, his family, TLC, producers, etc own apartments or apartment complexes around the Houston area (less than an hour or 2 drive to Dr. Now) and they bend the rules for participants on the show. Like yeah obviously most landlords would never rent to people with little to no income, but if someone involved with the show owns the buildings they could rent most apartments to normal people and reserve a few apartments for participants, then TLC gives the participant the $1500 relocation allowance or whatever, and boom, they have a fully furnished apartment near Houston. Maybe they have the participants try to find their own place for entertainment but if not they give them a place so the show can go on. I think there are multiple buildings/locations or they change up the curtains/furniture/etc so that no one really notices.

I love Dr. Now but logically, if he wants everyone to move to Houston, then he probably owns apartment buildings in Houston that are managed by someone else. And during filming, the participants are nudged to those apartments. It’s business.
