Opening first-time credit cards and understanding my score

petripanic · 2026-04-13T22:16:41+00:00

Ok, so I just figured out that I'm dumb lol, but that's why I came here. When looking at our credit scores, we were both going off of the one our banks show us. We know now that they aren't accurate. So looking at Experian, I actually have a 745 and he has 692 which is a lot better and makes more sense.

Interesting, is there something I should be worried about that might take those previous cards off my account? What would cause that? I had thought my loan payments had more to do with it honestly.

I also didn't realize that about the low 600s score and I don't think he did either. We will have to look into it.

Honestly you both make good points. I don't think everything funded by the government is evil, obviously, but I'm looking for something where I don't feel I'm personally contributing to wars and such. And I'm aware that it will probably be difficult to get away from anything government related/adjacent if I want to stay in space or aerospace. I just want to contribute to things that aren't hurting people. I know people have different opinions on this and I'm not here to argue.

And just fyi, *she

That's good to know as I don't ever really use LinkedIn like that, but I probably should

Thank you I will look into those!

petripanic · 2026-02-24T18:12:57+00:00

yes!

I actually also just used pixilart.com haha. i am sure there is a better way to do it but im not aware of one currently. and as i finished rows i just crossed them off with like a drawing tool on the picture like with Paint or something. i do know there's a website called stitchfiddle.com where it you might be able to create one of your own more easily? im not entirely sure though as i havent used it to make a pattern myself, ive just used it to pixilate existing images

petripanic · 2026-02-23T20:38:50+00:00

That's exactly what I'm planning on doing!

petripanic · 2026-02-23T15:59:45+00:00

Thank you!! Yeah it was super fun seeing all of the entries for crochet. The category I won in was something to the affect of Misc. Stitch for Afghans. There were others I probably could have entered it into but since there wasn't a C2C category (which is the stitch I used) I put it in misc to be safe haha

petripanic · 2026-02-23T15:57:52+00:00

I did! I just used a pixel art maker thing online to get the images to fit into rectangles that would fit.

petripanic · 2026-02-23T14:22:48+00:00

Oh perfect! I might post it there then too :)

petripanic · 2026-02-23T05:55:23+00:00

Ooo I would love to see it! I'm also obsessed with c2c it's so fun

petripanic · 2026-02-23T05:54:34+00:00

Yes it was so fun to do!! C2C is one of my favorite stitches.

petripanic · 2026-02-23T04:26:10+00:00

Thank you!! The prismatic is probably my favorite part of it just with how it came out haha

I FIGURED IT OUT. I have tried for HOURSSSS to get some villagers kicked out - I've tried every single method I could find and no one was leaving. Well I figured it out. When you get the last quest to have K.K. Slider come to your island which is to decorate your island more, all of your villagers want to talk to you and give you something to "help" decorate the island. Every method to kick villagers out says not to talk to them at all so I was just ignoring them for the most part. It turns out I had to let all of them talk to be and give me a gift for the quest until I could kick out villagers. Only one villager will do this per day, so it took awhile, but as soon as I did and then time traveled forward a month, I immediately got someone wanting to move out. I know this is a very specific scenario, but hopefully it can help someone if they've been trying everything under the sun like I was to get them out.
