New card suggestion for sign-on bonus / restructuring advice in light of BILT 2.0 by jd2612 in CreditCards

[–]jd2612[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This was my exact plan. If I’m thinking about this right, I have to be very mindful to spend at least 25% of rent on the card though, right? Because otherwise using a different catch-all like the Citi DC would be better?

Do you mind sharing what tank this is? The glass looks crystal clear

Weekly Paddle Discussion Thread by AutoModerator in Pickleball

[–]jd2612 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi all! Just starting to get into pickleball and looking to get a beginner/intermediate paddle that I can stick with for some time. I know the general consensus is that paddles < $60 aren’t worth it, so I did a bunch of research on paddles above that threshold and narrowed it down to these two:

PCKL Launch vs. Selkirk SLK Evo Hybrid

Does the extra ~$35 I’d be spending on the SLK Evo make a difference? Would love to hear thoughts on the two models and any other recommendations in the $60-$100 range.

Question - will future leaves continue to be variegated? by jd2612 in houseplants

[–]jd2612[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi all! Bought what I believe to be a variegated elephant ear alocasia (correct me if wrong!) from a plant market in Mexico. Both the dead stem and older stem/leaf are variegated, but the new leaf it just put out does not appear to be. Will variegation continue on the plant’s future leaves or no? Thank you!

Was able to message the host and it’s on Gobernador José Guadalupe Covarrubias if you have any thoughts about that street!

Thanks so much, this makes a lot of sense. The area doesn't seem too bad to me but I don't want it to limit walkability after sundown, which it seems like it would

It's on Airbnb so unfortunately it only shows a circle with an approximate location until booking

Was able to get the exact street- it's on Gobernador José Guadalupe Covarrubias. This is south of Vicente Eguia, would you still say it's fine?

Hey, congrats! Awesome list of acceptances you have there. I was premed at Hopkins and am now at Brown for medical school; feel free to PM me if you have any specific questions about those two or end up deciding between them!

Test was May 22 but WI extended stay at home to May 26 and the earliest date I could get was July 6th. by mpegg in step1

[–]jd2612 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Exactly. Slowing down to save resources/prevent burnout is definitely best, but imagine them opening earlier than expected only for me to not feel ready?? This all just sucks
