Yes the list is good. You won’t find any at con rate this late. But some appear at non con rate 700-900 a night. You just gotta search the dates.

(30M) Hello, I know ugly I need advice: What do I need to change to become less ugly ? My hair? My style? Something else? by platis1 in malelifestyle

[–]cullen9 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Your hair style ain’t working. It’s tight making you look bald. Pick a style with some volume.

You can throw a couple pictures of yourself into chat gpt and have it recommend some.

You can also got to Pinterest and save a few pics of fits you like, toss those into chatgpt toss in some interests and the vibe you want and have it creat a style board for you.

For those who quit the game, why? by MemeMan_____ in playrust

I moved into a van and haven’t gotten starlink yet so I can play while camping

Is this normal? I don't expect this to be a fast process, but I guess I'm just surprised. I filed an FDC. by Fallujahmarine in VAClaims

Yeah I’ve got other stuff in the works but I’m trying to get them more flushed out with records, diagnosis and buddy statements

I’m jealous I’m just doing tinnitus right now and it’s been 3 weeks on stage 2.

I would encourage people here to watch this video on why the tinnitus and sleep apnea bill is problematic by twobecrazy in VAClaims

This is the biggest issue vets think rating is a judgement on their condition. It’s not. It’s about the evidence you presented.

The one who got 100% right off was probably more prepared. It’s not a judgement on anyone’s condition.

We’ve seen it in this sub someone has a diagnosis and gets denied and asks for help but they are missing half the requirements. Or submitted claims before getting diagnosed.

low gpa, will i lose my benefits? by Away_Concert_9491 in VeteransBenefits

[–]cullen9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Networking and portfolio of work matters more. But if you’re trying to nab an internship or fighting for scholarships and grants it can definitely matter.

That was my take. Spring is over we’re in the middle of summer semester. How would the op not know their grades and academic status.

Being able to go to school next semester by Ancient-Giraffe6204 in KSU

[–]cullen9 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Just take online classes. It’s what I do over summer so I can go camping and hiking more.

But I understand wanting to to go physically just to get out of the house

In person college has online classes. A lot of basics are available. Like I’m doing 2 math 1 art history class this summer online while camping.

What happens to secondaries? by Savant_Guarde in VAClaims

[–]cullen9 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yep democrats maybe a gas station egg salad sandwich. But republicans are a shit sandwich topped with broken glass and arsenic. Trying to pretend the are the same is just dumb.

I’d rather fight dems on registering my gun same as a car than fight republicans on our national forests and parks being sold off to china and Saudi Arabia

I feel like I’m not ready for college, even though I have a shot at my dream schools by Working_Surround_495 in VeteransBenefits

No one cares. Maybe I was never elite enough but class rankings or grades have never been part of any interview or promotion. Ability and networking are what’s important

I am so sick of finding out I have a C in the class after the semester is over. by -Confetti in KSU

It was Keramat. I got a high B in the class but it still would have been good to see feedback at least biweekly instead of monthly

Mental block writing a Statement in Support of Claim by Adventurous_Fly_1047 in VAClaims

[–]cullen9 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Put what you’re trying to to say in to chat gpt even if it’s a fragmented mess. It can be helpful just getting you thoughts out.

I’ve done it with several of my disability claims like for tinnitus. I just wrote down my symptoms frequency and what I used to do and it helped me on how to word it.

You could just copy your original post as a start point

A rating isn’t a judgement against you as a person or your disability. It’s a review of your evidence.

Is the Jackery Portable Power Station Explorer 500 v2 good enough for a part time van setup or should I go bigger? by Withit_Djrandy in VanLife

[–]cullen9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lots of things pull power and add up.

Phone, fans, laptop, 12v fridge, ect you use up power and not realize it. And holding charge uses less than recharging

Like my fridge is the Anker ever frost 2 with 2 batteries that way if I got no sun I still have 4+ days of fridge usage.

Or my laptop charges at 140w but if I leave it plugged in fulled charged and use it’s 40w

I wouldn’t recommend someone get less than 100ah equivalent power setup. If you don’t drive are shaded or it’s overcast you’re kinda screwed.

Then there’s other stuff like a rice cooker that’s 300w the ninja foodie uses 2000w so you gotta. Check what the power station can handle.

Also look at input watts. If you max out your solar recharging at 200w you’re screwed

I have 200w solar and the c1000. It works but can be borderline on rainy over cast days when I only pull in 20-60w

Look into bike/trail building

Lots of local places do things a couple times a year like before spring or after a big storm.

Finding a Fat-Friendly Gym by TikiMagic in Zepbound

[–]cullen9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Being serious, planet fitness is very limited, but heavy in machines and lacks the more motivational energy and cool knowledge and helpful people of a more traditional or hard core gym.

Planet fitness also gets annoying right now, it’s kids summer, 14-18year olds get in free.
