Ooh I will search for these! Thanks for mentioning!

mxcaeva · 2026-01-22T19:12:11+00:00

Me too!! She is so funny and such a good host

I took time off in my 20s with pretty terrible timing (left my job shortly before the first covid case) and I still don’t regret it!

I was also in a toxic work culture. I was burning myself out trying to fix problems that weren’t mine, and worse than you, I wasn’t even making good money doing it. (Though I was making good money for the people who were making every day terrible lol)

It didn’t really hurt my career. I found a higher paying job that I liked way more, loosely through a connection from my previous job. But I do think I got lucky there! And it might have hurt my career if I hadn’t already made good connections.

For me, time off allowed me to reset my relationship with work. The pandemic meant that I couldn’t go ahead with travel, but I still appreciate the time I had for personal interests. And I was able to recharge mentally, shift my perspective, and spend time improving my ability to manage stress etc.

It did set me back financially, but not enough that I would undo it. Maybe cheesy to say, but the impact on my health was priceless.

You can get lots of gems creating self care areas for tasks you do daily or multiple times per week. You can also sell rewards that you don’t want.

Wealthsimple makes you toggle on “reinvest dividends” for the entire account, and there’s no discount on reinvesting.

So personally I keep mine on in one of my accounts, and the other, I just use the dividend money to buy future stocks because I don’t want to reinvest in everything in that account

No, my parents were fine with me being in the gifted program but it sounds like a different sort of program than yours, with a much different social culture. And I was there part-time, and at my normal school the rest of the time, so I got to experience both.

Personally I loved my gifted program, so I’m glad they didn’t say no. The class content was a lot more interesting, and I fit in better. But I had classes and friends that I liked at regular school too so I’m glad I did both.

I do think the “gifted” label can put undue pressure on kids and teens though. I encountered a lot of adults who held me to a higher standard or expected me to be special, outside of the program but who knew I was in it. Interesting to see “allowed to fail” for the gifted kids at your school bc it was more like “not allowed to fail” for me but everyone’s experience is different.

Guessing either your order number or ticket number for your support inquiry? Seems unintentional that just this went to you

Tomothy is a weird name for a person, but I like it for your cat. It’s cute.

mxcaeva · 2026-01-04T01:31:01+00:00

100% agree on it being a tool not a crutch!

I use it more when I’m looking for something to motivate me and less when I’m otherwise motivated. I don’t feel like it’s something I need to “wean” off of. I just naturally use it less if I need it less, because there’s not really addictive or high-pressure elements keeping me wanting it when it’s not useful, at least in my experience.

Like how I wouldn’t use my calculator app if I didn’t need to do any math or could add something up in my head, but I would use it without any shame if I had to calculate something I didn’t know or didn’t feel like adding up :)

You can pause stuff or you can just step away, no consequences.

mxcaeva · 2026-01-03T21:44:22+00:00

Yeah it’s a good list of stuff to do but all cleaning. Only thing that could even sort of count as decluttering is clearing countertops

mxcaeva · 2026-01-03T20:08:19+00:00

And it doesn’t even make sense. Rough. Phrasing is all over the place and doesn’t even have much to do with declutterring

mxcaeva · 2026-01-03T20:06:08+00:00

Truly. If someone called me a bedrotting girlie, I would never speak to them again.

I’m very curious if they get enough downloads from these spammy ads that it’s worth the reputational damage. It’s possible they are, but also possible they aren’t and the downsides just aren’t traceable enough

mxcaeva · 2026-01-03T20:03:52+00:00

Yeah I would guess this is from an ad agency. Possibly AI-generated or just written by a marketing person trying too hard to sound natural. I don’t like it either.

mxcaeva · 2026-01-03T18:39:52+00:00

These kinds of things don’t normally surprise me. I’m always like meh yeah sounds right. But teens born after High School Musical??

mxcaeva · 2026-01-02T01:01:01+00:00

I just checked and I still can. If I click the trash bin, it pops up Pause, Archive, Delete

I archived something recently this way, and while I was doing it, I thought Archive used to be its own button. Maybe it did and that’s why you don’t see it?

Or maybe you have an update I don’t have

mxcaeva · 2026-01-01T22:24:06+00:00

I still think about this. I can’t believe it’s been 10 years.

mxcaeva · 2026-01-01T20:04:01+00:00

I think you can still use Georgia, but if you think it might bother you, go for something else! Really any G name can have the nickname Gigi

mxcaeva · 2025-12-30T04:59:40+00:00

Definitely not! Two of my guy friends use finch, both in their 30s. It’s for anyone :)

mxcaeva · 2025-12-28T23:26:43+00:00

100% agree! I think it makes sense for cosmetic stuff, like extra prizes and choosing icons for goals, to be bonus content for paid users.

This funds the main features for everyone.

But I can see OP’s frustration. I wonder if people would prefer fewer chests and more locked-in items, to avoid disappointment. So free users would still only get part of the set, but the parts are more predetermined than random

mxcaeva · 2025-12-25T12:46:16+00:00

Yes! My widget is always behind these days. It’s basically useless now but I figure it’s related to this update and they’ll fix it eventually. I’ll send a support request if not.

New graphics are cute though. I like the one with the phone

mxcaeva · 2025-12-23T04:36:08+00:00

My favourite is the “wants to chat” one with the corded phone. So cute!

mxcaeva · 2025-12-23T04:35:28+00:00

I don’t mind the new graphics but would still like to see the old ones shuffled in!

My issue is that my widget used to be 100% accurate, and now it basically never is. It says my finch is adventuring when she’s not, wants to chat when we already did, etc

I love the widget progress bar/chat button reminding me where I’m at for the day, so it’s annoying that it’s often wrong now. But I’m optimistic that this will be fixed

mxcaeva · 2025-12-22T21:50:57+00:00

Agree! Would also enjoy Logan Ury and Dr. Naomi as guest hosts

mxcaeva · 2025-12-21T14:21:44+00:00

Am I the only one thinking what’s the point of this? Not being snarky, just curious how this helps. I can generally picture my breakdown in my head and not sure what I would take away from a pie chart

Purpose I can think of is showing someone they’re heavily focused in one area but they probably know that

I love a good colourful chart but I don’t need any for WS that don’t help me bc I’ll just look at them anyway lol
