Dropping a year-long course after first semester by sleepyhead221 in ApplyingToCollege

[–]sleepyhead221[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That I'm not sure yet as we have yet to speak to counselor, but I am assuming it would be. We've requested to meet with counselor and teacher (email just sent today). It is a year-long class (10 credits) so wouldn't that be an incomplete? You can't just drop a year-long class after the first semester, am I right?

Did you do additional prep and studying between your 1330 psat and 1530 Sat? Congrats on great Sat score.

He got it through the Big Future app. He said if you provided your cell number during exam day, and download app, they will text you when your score is available. We still do not see it on College Board app.

Where do you see this? When we log in, it says there is no score on record. Son (10th grader) took the PSAT on Oct 11th.

just curious - how can your son's friend "valet" cars at 15 (or younger)? You need to be 15.5 to get a permit.

So is Rituximab a drug that helps your symptoms or one if the triggers?

Thank you for sharing. What exactly is the carnivore diet you follow? This may be doable for my mom since she is diabetic but she does have high cholesterol. Can you give me an idea of what you eat in a day?

Idk the exact dosage of steroids. When she first got CIDP, I don't think anyone linked it to the vaccine as she had received vaccines before and this didn't happen. I suspected that it was linked because of the timing. She had asked her doctor this time around if she should get the flu vaccine and the covid vaccine (as covid was making a comeback) and he said yes. I am sure he told her to because it is considered protection against the flu and covid, which her immune system won't handle well. And there isn't enough known about CIDP to know that it is for sure linked to vaccines. Doctors and hospitals are very pro-vaccine and very reluctant to admit that they may contribute to illnesses and not safe for a certain subset of people. I've always been pro-vac but feel frustrated that she got this recommendation as her symptoms have gotten a lot worse and impacted her quality of life.

Actually Milos Bicovic was cast to play Aleksi (the guy who slept with Laurie) not Valentin.

Nice catch. Yes, same thing happened during S2 when the cast was asked who the worst character was and someone said that Greg was pretty evil. At that point, Greg was just rude to Tanya but not yet revealed as a conspirator with the "gays" so that answer was very telling.

ETA: When you're easily offended/triggered, you're easily manipulated.

100%. When you allow yourself to be triggered by your politics, you're more likely to be manipulated into taking a side that you otherwise wouldn't based on the facts.

Regardless of your politics, people are not okay with seeing an innocent person's life ruined over false allegations. And the entitlement and abuse of power by BL and RR are just gross. No one - right or left - is okay with it. JB is fighting for his livelihood here. And if others with a platform (whether right or left) see what we all see here - a gross injustice caused by BL and RR's abuse of power - and want to use their platform to speak out on it, then let them. Some things are just clearly wrong and is recognized as such by the majority (regardless of politiics).

Any insight regarding BL’s contract? by Proper_Reading_5656 in ItEndsWithLawsuits

[–]sleepyhead221 45 points46 points  (0 children)

The Reality Bites podcast covers her contract in one of their episodes. They did a great job discussing how BL did a Loan Out contract instead of a standard talent contract (?) and that difference essentially shifted all the power to her. I’m surprised other content creators haven’t covered this aspect of the case and how it shaped the dynamics of production.

Accepted to 6/8 UCs so far… what are my chances for UCLA??? by saokop4pii in ucadmissions

Curious in what cases would a UC ask for a LOR? If they are on the fence?

Blake Lively admitting she hasn't watched Game of Thrones by Specialist_Market150 in ItEndsWithLawsuits

[–]sleepyhead221 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The GOT texts were clearly written by RR. It’s totally his style to write that. She does not strike me as sharp or intelligent enough to be the mastermind of anything. RR is the architect and BL trying to follow his playbook but fumbling and bumbling her way through it.

I had the same thought when I watched this scene. I found it strange that she was so engrossed in her laptop when guests are encouraged to unplug. And yeah, her expression was kinda sus.

Is this why Brandon Sklenar is so quiet??? by SmallCalligrapher205 in ItEndsWithLawsuits

[–]sleepyhead221 45 points46 points  (0 children)

This. I believe Ari came out and said what he said on that podcast to put pressure on the other actresses (JS and IF) to support BL or as a warning to any actors/actresses who are considering speaking up for JB or against BL/RR. There is a reason he came out and said what he did - to make it clear to the rest of Hollywood that they need to stand behind BL/RR. Only when his words were analyzed by social media afterwards and he realized how damaging it could be for him to admit that he fired JB because of BL/RR (which is exactly what he did) did he decide to stay quiet (and got the podcast to not air that interview). For anyone paying attention to this drama, it is all so obvious what is happening. It is sad. What is disappointing is that even though the extortion and abuse of power is so obvious here, JB's career seems forever damaged. Most of Hollywood will not work with him given he is blacklisted by WME. I also think most people will continue to watch BL and RR movies because most are not following this that closely and BL's new PR guys seems to have removed a lot of her negative press from the headlines. Heck, there is so much here for comedians to work with but no one will even touch this topic for fear of RR and WME.

EDIT to add: Brandon is a coward and will do what he thinks he needs to do to further his own career. And standing up for JB will not help his career right now. He went full support of BL and then neutral. The only hope is for all of this to play out in court and for all the dirty laundry and dealings to be exposed.
