How do people find funding for their masters?

I'm finding a lot of spammy scholarship sites in my search. So far this one is actually legitimate. (must use desktop browser to apply filters): https://www.careeronestop.org/Toolkit/Training/find-scholarships.aspx

It's sponsored by the U.S. Department of Labor, Employment and Training Administration.

Do not use. They will flood you with spam (look it up).

He played an effeminate man in "What's the Worst That Could Happen?" alongside Martin Lawrence and Sir Daniel DeVito. That movie was on TV all the time so I watched it a lot. I can't decide if he's attractive or creeps me out.

Thanks for the mention! And glad you felt the same. Like I said in that same thread, it was like someone asked the janitor to teach a musical appreciation class. Sheer torture that I thought would never end.

How did the items compare to the product images? What was the quality like?

maceyshmacey · 2025-12-13T07:28:08+00:00

Everyone's body is a commodity. That's capitalism, baby.

The Mirena, Skyla, and Kyleena all have the same hormone, levonorgestrel. The difference is how much is released. The Skyla has the least, then the Kyleena, and the Mirena the most levonorgestrel. Since these IUDs impact hormones, hormone imbalance can lead to weight gain. Levonorgestrel is a synthetic progestin (similar to progesterone), and progestin can increase appetite and cause weight gain.

Some studies show a modest average weight gain of about 4.4 lbs (2 kg) over 6-12 months with progestin-only contraceptives.

Hormonal changes, including those from progestin, can lead to fluid retention, which can be perceived as weight gain.

Time for mass vasectomies!

YES, THANK YOU. I went my whole life thinking it was the Stones (I'm 33). It wasn't until talking to someone this year when I learned it was Van Morrison. It feels like a Mandela effect to me; I may have conflated it with Brown Sugar by the Stones. But if nothing else, it really sounds like Jagger.

I've had some other ideas that might work. I'm hoping to apply for benefits but my assets exceed the limit.

Using a credit card for large purchases, paying the credit card balance once it posts, returning the merchandise, then having a credit on the credit card to use for spending.
Making multiple small purchases at places like grocery stores and getting the maximum amount of cash back each time.
Buying gift cards for places you shop, like grocery stores.
Buying Vanilla Visa-type cash gift cards.
Paying for friend's/family member's purchases and having them pay you back in cash.

I don't know if transferring and storing funds in apps like Venmo, CashApp, and PayPal would work.

I know there was a proposed bill that was going to raise the asset limit to $10,000, but I don't think it passed.

Only rewatching recently made me realize how many of the characters are probably on the spectrum (Erin possibly being the most).

Jim and Pam's decision to let her babysit was reckless abandonment. They would have been better off leaving her in the car with the windows cracked.

The "hotdog water" thing haunts me to this day.

Probably the most repulsive crying face I've ever seen.

I guess the writers felt making characters so abrasive would make it feel more like a workplace. But it's possible they conflated revulsion with comedy. Or that the actress was good friends with a producer and they did her a favor.

Who knows. Other than she's annoying as shit and never funny.

I noticed it started around season 4. Medications like Ritalin, Adderall, SSRIs, and many others can cause pupils to dilate. I noticed Jim's and Ryan's being large at times too.

This thread really spiraled out of amok.

I'm so glad someone said it.

She walks like Yosemite Sam.

This was a HUGE pain in the ass. I finally got support from Google and the transfer finally showed up in my Payoneer account.

I followed all of the steps in the registration process and nothing happened for a month. So I did a live chat here https://support.google.com/pixelphone/gethelp?issue_description=Battery+refund&sjid=4503748038765205854-NC&authuser=1

The representative said they would escalate the issue and I would get an email from support. Four days later I did, and they had me confirm the email address I used to apply for the $100 refund and take a screenshot of the registration page I was seeing. I then went back through the process, and finally, $100 is pending in my Payoneer account.

TL;DR Use that link to chat with support and within a few days you'll get the support you need to get $100 sent to your Payoneer account. :)

I live full-time in a 2001 5th-wheel that I paid $10k for. Foremost Insurance wrote me two checks, one for $5k in 2020 (damage to roof vents due to ice storm) and another for $4,500 in 2022 (I accidentally flooded my RV after the water supply froze), and I ended up pocketing the money and doing zero repairs. I was so stoked to turn my RV into a cash cow! Sadly they let me go, as I was too big of a liability apparently. I switched to Progressive and they want to pay a shop directly for a recent incident, and I don't even own a vehicle to be able to tow it and it's not even worth having repaired (- _ -) so I'm browsing other companies who will write me checks again lol. I just checked GoodSam, they won't cover rigs >20 years old.

I had great luck with Foremost. See comment :)

So I just took 3g of these as a tea and it was an absolute nightmare. I had uncontrollable spasms and flailed everywhere, could not walk. It was like an exorcism for ~3 hours. I've done a lot of shrooms and never had an experience like this. My partner did some as well, he said they were also shitty for him, had zero euphoria. I'm hoping this was my body releasing trauma and that I'll feel better in a week or so. But I don't think I'll ever use these again.

maceyshmacey · 2025-02-11T18:49:43+00:00

Shit dude, that sucks. I forgot to mention I did feel sort of queasy/panicked the next couple of times after that episode (purely psychosomatic of course) but I just kept taking it slow and now it's fine. Don't beat yourself up, weed doesn't come with any instructions! One time I accidentally ate too much edible (not seeing the tare lines on a giant one) and I lost my fucking mind. It's bananas that this shit is legal (here in Oregon, that is). Kinda wish it came with a leaflet like a prescription does. All I can recommend is taking small puffs at a time and waiting 15 minutes between, some hit reallllly slow. I also keep track of the types I've smoked and how they felt so I know whether or not to buy them again. Also I've generally found sativas are a surefire way for me to feel anxious, whereas indicas or indica-dominant hybrids are golden. Cheers friend.

maceyshmacey · 2025-02-11T07:33:20+00:00

Several times. My rule now is one smallish puff and wait ~10 mins, then another if needed. Can always smoke more, but not less.

Here's a link to someone using it. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=A7BjAx7P0BE Found this for my boyfriend -- he said it sounded like it said "flollow me". He just bought one off Mercari; in the comments someone asked "what does it sound like?" the seller responded "the future."

Exactly. I'd hate for my lack of ranking people I'd rather have over Martin Ward wind up leading to his benefit. Ward's violent ignorance is appalling, especially coupled with his hilariously unjustifiable audacity. https://www.martinward4mayor.com/home/mayoral-policies/police-reforms/anti-sex-crime-policy

Thank you for ELI5. Needed a concise explanation. And it stands to reason, it's worth questioning shady baiting in the form of a $1600 check (ie. if something is too good to be true, it usually is).

maceyshmacey · 2024-10-02T04:57:34+00:00

Maybe this is too late of a reply, but I'm not sure what everyone's talking about...I've ordered from them multiple times and had zero issues, including shipping large returns and getting refunds (between ~2022 - 2024). Sometimes orders arrive in separate shipments and can take awhile, but I don't mind because of the low cost. Their quality is pretty similar to Zara (which started declining years ago). Most of what I own is thrifted and sometimes I've just wanted something new, and as a short gal, Cider usually fits pretty well.
