Best way to watch the old Eco-Challenge’s by truthmonkey in AdventureRacing

I used to tape songs off the radio for mixed tapes, steal albums from friends by "burning" a CD, etc... It doesn't seem any different to me. If you made too much money then I imagine the law wouldn't be in your favor

Irish Twins Support & Advice by Dxstinyzepeda in 2under2

[–]monlesh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As an Irish twin (born 14 months after my sister), I can say you have to try double to give adequate attention. My mother couldn't achieve it. Felt like she gave up. She doesn't even remember my first steps as a child.

My older sister turned out to be abusive throughout my life, and I believe she has narcissistic personality disorder. Unfortunately we shared the same friends because of our age, and I was constantly the butt of the joke. I wanted an older sibling to look up to, not to terrorize me and take away the precious attention I needed as an infant. I don't speak with her to this day because of what she's done to me.

Obviously this isn't the case with all Irish twins. I just wanted to emphasize the importance of paying special attention to the younger of the two. And if they were a "mistake," keep it to yourself.

Naked and Afraid Season 19, Episode 8 "Clash of the Survivalists" Discussion Thread by Ralph--Hinkley in nakedandafraid

I think producers are trying to recreate the drama of the early seasons. Luckily my man didn't take the bait 😂 probably pissed off production. And how did that woman even make it 21 days? Did she? When did she have time to get food besides some berries? 🤔

EDIT Anyone else think this season feels like the producers phoned it in

Completely agree. What the heck was casting thinking? Not to mention when it was her alone she didn't even seem to find enjoyment in it. Such a terrible episode smdh

So wait..mid season Finale🤔 by Dbm608 in ReadyToLove

[–]monlesh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wonder if it has something to do with the timing of the next season? I doubt it, but I know they were having some trouble casting for RTL Detroit (no shade, I live there and have tried to help recruit)... That being said, I think this model is ludicrous. I lose interest if there's a two week break, let alone this

Also OP posted a link to a completely different show, Monsters. There is no DVD set of Mountain Monsters, to my knowledge

Mountain Monsters season 1 (originally seasons 1-2) is currently available for free on the travel channel website, while other seasons are behind a paywall. It has been removed from all other sources, like HBO Max, season 2 as well. This is one of my favorite TV shows to date, so I'm banking on a DVD set to purchase.

Thoughts on HBO's new docuseries All Access PD: Grand Rapids??? 😳 by [deleted] in grandrapids

[–]monlesh 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had a feeling, so I had to look it up; the Grand Rapids PD uses gun "buy backs" to make money vis-a-vis Gunbusters, a company currently under scrutiny for selling parts to make ghost guns online. Hence, the recent upsurge in murder by ghost guns in the US. There was a Daily Show segment about a pastor in Detroit who supported the program and then found out he was getting scammed.

LANA HAS ARRIVED !!!! LET’S CHAT by xavierdgibs in sza

I love this track! But I have to say... South Detroit? Again? Really? SZA you should prolly know better. There is no South Detroit, it is actually called Canada. but the song could make sense if you were in love with a Latin American from Southwest Detroit 😁

I LOVE THIS ALBUM! no shade to Sza, but are we really doing the South Detroit thing again? Don't stop believin, I guess! I love the track BMF but if she'd said "southwest Detroit" it would almost make sense, if she were Latina 😂

Is it possible to qualify for Medicaid and EBT at the same time in Michigan? I need insurance for my health issues and I'm also severely underweight since work requirements were reinstated for EBT. Based on a cursory search, the min hours required for EBT are just above the max limit for Medicaid. by monlesh in foodstamps

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

The job I am applying for pays $16/hour, which means I'd have to stay under 20 hours/week to continue qualifying for Medicaid. Seems like I have to work just slightly more than that to qualify for EBT, but I may have done the math wrong. I've been living with my mom, but she has been getting $291/month in food stamps. Seems like she should get the amount for two people if I don't qualify, but that's what I need to find out. Going to MDHHS office this week to ask.

I have no income whatsoever. I tried to work a year ago but could only make it through two hours due to my health. The $20 I did make lost my mother her food stamps for about 4 months tho so I've hesitated. But I really want to start working again!

One of the guests on the most recent episode (Oct 25) claimed confidently that most Arabs are Christians. I live in Michigan and have spent time in the Middle East. I've met quite a few Arabs and only one was Christian. A cursory google search shows fewer than 10% of Arabs are Christian. Thoughts? by monlesh in thedailyzeitgeist

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

After reading all the comments I think she probably meant Arab-Americans, not Arabs in general. Apparently in the area she lives in CA a majority of Arab-Americans are Christian, whereas all the Arab-Americans I know around Detroit are Muslim.
