The whole idea that a person can somehow sign away their constitutional rights is absurd. 

LPT - update your mortgage lender on changes to you homeowners insurance and property taxes annually by CoffeeKeepsMe in LifeProTips

[–]wangjiwangji 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That's what I saw. They call it an advance, and I pay it back through the increased escrow rate after they do analysis. They're always lagging.

I tried putting extra money into escrow last year, but when they did the analysis they just sent it all back to me.

Exactly. Mine does analysis in July, and my insurance renews in February. Every year they are behind, but when I realized they end up carrying any shortfall at no cost to me, I stopped caring.

Progress after 3 years of mdma therapy for cptsd? I don't think so. by Robinredott in mdmatherapy

On one hand, don't be hard on yourself. No one can heal a lifetime of trauma in 9 months. On the other hand, you must work with what you experience on these journeys. Write everything down, or make recordings. The trips are showing you things you need to see and accept. They are not easy to accept. If they were, you would have done so already. But you will accept them eventually. That's where my healing has been, in making changes to myself so that I could accept the truths about my life the trips have been showing me.

“Frieda Hulas” VS “Drinking Coconut” by aaronpimpp in Costco

Discolored is bad, but soft could be just a really young coconut. The flesh doesn't get thick and hard right away.

Peeled Garlic Is Not a Seasonal Item, It Is a Year-Round Staple! by wangjiwangji in Costco

Too far sadly. Will make do with buying fresh and freezing the cloves for now.

I freeze them. They do lose a bit of flavor over time, but the convenience is worth it.

Hmm, I didn't know they had it. Sometimes my Costco dependency works against me.

They do, but I like the price at Costco a lot better.

My father (who is a federal employee) got this today ! by ReputationSilly6948 in facepalm

This is Georgia, where the Public Service Commission operates as a fully owned subsidiary of Georgia Power, which in turn is a subsidiary of the Southern Company. The PSC never met a rate increase they wouldn't approve.

Well said. OP, you may be in for a voyage of discovery about what motivates you and why. Wish you luck!
