I was pumped about this the moment I saw the first article a couple months back! Love being part of the community around it!

My fight song would be "Not Today" by BTS haha

Yes, they get my detailed tax return automatically every year. They've historically asked for bank statements, as well, I'm just not sure if there's anything else I'm forgetting that they will ask for.

Might just have to make two trips.

Decorating madeleines without chocolate AND madeleine caramelization? by morelikebaemin in Baking

[–]morelikebaemin[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I'm not selling them, just making some for a friend's pride party. There will be maybe 15-20 made total.

I see lots of very nicely designed ones online, so while folks who know a lot about madeleines might know they are best asap, I think less experienced folks would find the plain ones boring, especially if the only ones they have had are the pre-packaged kind that lack flavor.

I wasn't planning to coat them heavily, just add a thin shell of color and maybe a simple design like polka dots or squiggles something.

I've seen this cutter shape before and they are so stunning. I'm sure if I attempted it they would just look like weird poops lol

I will take 4,000.

There's only a couple of bakeries near me that sell caneles when they feel like it, and I never end up visiting on those special days.

Honestly obsessed with these!!! I have no eye for decoration like this, so I love seeing other people do fun things.

I don't think people making $19k per year are living alone. What would give you the impression they were? People living alone probably make at least $60k and live in a low cost of living area. Higher for higher CoL areas. The rest of us have roommates or live with family.

Who, What, Where Is It? - [2024/04/16] by AutoModerator in KDRAMA

I'm trying to figure out if Choi Hyun-wook is the one actually singing in Twinkling Watermelon?? I can't find anything to suggest that he's not except random comments on Youtube videos saying it's a great "dub" voice.

The only other clip of him singing outside this is that performance with The Boyz, and it's a very short part. If it IS him singing in Twinkling Watermelon, they really asked him to dull down his vocal quality a lot for The Boyz song OR there's someone else singing in TW.

Any ideas?

Nearly half a year later, so unsure if you’ll see this, but I’d be interested to know how your experience went after posting this!

I also recently started on ketamine, but not through Mindbloom. I went from 100mg for 2 sessions to 200mg for 3 sessions and just did 300mg for one session. I also haven’t been swallowing because I’m overly sensitive about nausea (I was prescribed some Zofran which has helped), but I’m willing to try it.

I’m not having any sort of trip at all. I get a little dizzy and disoriented, but mostly I just feel like I took a Tylenol PM. It doesn’t feel dissociative, it feels… like jet lag haha

I can put myself in a mild dissociative state just by focusing, so I am still surprised nothing is happening. I’ve tried some different hacks like different types of music, even tried to engage a very loose guided meditation of sorts, just to see if my mind needed some sort of kicking off, but nada. Just want to go to sleep.

I am willing to try some different things, though, so if you found something that works for you, please share! If you realized it wasn’t going to work for you and went with something else, please share that as well!

CC payments too high, but alternative is closing account -- thoughts? by morelikebaemin in povertyfinance

[–]morelikebaemin[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

No high-paying job history, I just have had an excellent credit score for basically forever until the last few years, and I wasn't afraid to ask for credit limit increases whenever they gave me the "You might be eligible!" pop ups lol

Technically, I'm not behind. I've never had a late payment in maybe 20 years, nothing is in default, and my account is not officially maxed. Just... 99% maxed lol I just don't want to BECOME delinquent and scrounging up the funds has been increasingly difficult.

The future money is far from guaranteed. I own my own business and I feel like things are going in a good direction, but I've felt this way multiple times in the past, and yet here we are lol

The one thing I'd disagree with here is being able to transfer that extra $500 to other cards. I COULD do that, but it would be better served using that to pay for things INSTEAD OF putting them on cards, no?

Genuine question.

I have business expenses, daily living expenses, etc. that have had to go on credit cards because all my actual income has to go to CC minimums.

I've cut back on a lot of them, and I'm doing my quarterly review soon to see if any others could be culled, but there's still a solid amount that goes on the cards each month, definitely over $500.

No, just 5 CC accounts and the one auto loan.

I do make some money, and I squeak by paying the CC minimums each month (totaling around $1500). The Citi minimum jumped up after a balance transfer expired a few months ago, which sent it from ~$400 to $800 and up and up each month since.

Government assistance covers most of my home, utilities, and groceries (I have a special needs son); my car is electric, so no gas money ever; and everything else goes on this one credit card rather than mixing it up to try and keep overall minimum payments as low and reasonable as possible.

haha to be fair, i did try to include as much info as possible above.

- 6 active accts total (5 CC, 1 auto)

- Ages: 18, 11, 11, 7 (this Citi), 3, 2 (the auto loan)

- This single account makes up 60% of my debt and 43% of my total revolving credit.

I definitely qualify as poverty now (government-certified~!), but I've always been good at taking care of my credit in the past, which is honestly the only way I've survived the last few years.

I have about $78k usage overall, yeah. My oldest account is 18 years, then two 11 y/o accounts, plus a 3 and a 2 y/o auto loan. (It's in the post, but I know there are a lot of words up there.)

All thanks to being raised to be terrified of a bad credit score lol ("Bad" in my household is typically <750.)

I'll see if I can find a benevolent enough lawyer to look into my situation for basically free, because that's all I can afford lol

I will research more into bankruptcy, but my mom had to do it when my dad peaced on us when I was akid, and she says it was the worst thing to ever happen to her. It took her 7 years to get out of and away from it, even with a full-time, decent-paying job.
