They still are on r/conservative. I checked today. Some are saying they thought it was shady that Trump said he’d release them then all of a sudden he went silent on the matter.

They are all over the place now.

Nah. They think this is a necessary sacrifice. They think they are soldiers in a war.

I thought getting a second dog would keep the first entertained so he was following me around, dependent on me 100% of the day.

Now, I just have two dogs that want to watch me pee. -_-

Love them both though! Don’t regret it.

I came here to say this! I don’t have cats, but my dogs know other people’s names even though I never taught them those names directly!

Animals are smarter than humans realize.

At that age he carried around a stuffed cow and absolutely loved The Wizard of Oz. Our dad loved musicals as much as martial arts movies. We were blessed to have supportive families. He’s 22 now. I saw him last weekend. He was excited to be babysitting his gf’s pet snake. He’s a good kid.

My youngest brother came home from daycare everyday talking about how “Jason is sad. Jason was crying”. This went on for several weeks.

Finally we asked the daycare if Jason was okay. Jason was only there for one day.

Ah, I miss a time when memes were universal. I remember the first time I discovered Reddit and just scrolled r/f7u12 and laughed so hard I was in tears

How many people start companies, rack up a bunch of debt, then create another company that buys everything except the debt?

It’s BS they didn’t know about it. They got the financials before the deal. Even if it wasn’t directly listed as a line item it would have been a part of the expenses.

They still thought the deal was worth doing as it was based on incoming revenue and outgoing expenses.

I didn’t even get an email about this. I would have been angry when my subscription auto renewed. I love Trakt but this is too much. I’ll be cancelling too

EDIT: I cancelled. Bummer. I’ve been a user for 12 years. I track things religiously and I tried to contribute to their site by creating public lists that have actual value.

It’s too short a notice, a flimsy justification, and a poor execution. The auto tracking features they added recently really messed up my watch history so now is as good of time as any to quit.

It’s funny. They target people who burned the trucks, but insurance claims are probably their best chance to get paid for the trucks.

Could they not smell it?

I just told a story about doing this in another comment

It wasn’t on a whim. I had a plan and it worked. I don’t think most people are doing what I did and they are just taking these loans out without a plan or understanding on how bad they can be.

I 100% fixed my credit score with these types of shitty high interest loans. I took it from 450 to 700 pretty fast.

I realized that credit score formulas are heavily weighted by payment history and credit balances. I had no credit card balances but I had bad payment record from being a stupid kid in college.

Once that dawned on me, I put all my debt into a high interest loan. Made a payment or two then my credit score would go up a bit, and I’d refinance to a somewhat lower interest rate. Those high interest loans kill most people on interest so they don’t have origination fees. I kept refinancing to better rates until I got down to a reasonable number. By then my credit score was 700 and I could make consistent affordable payments until it was gone.

I wouldn’t recommend this to most people. It takes a lot of research and planning. The financial landscape has changed a lot since then too.

NOTE: Just because I had a success story with these doesn’t mean I think the types of loans are good. I found a loophole.

I think this industry is fucking gross and they target people in my situation with little knowledge of how loans and credit work. It’s a shame the CFPB couldn’t do more to stop it and now they are dead too.

Biscuits. I am in tears, that was hilarious and I needed that. Thank you.

Anyone who has a 401k likely has Tesla stock, unfortunately.

Yeah, could have been called “kids are learning how circuits work thanks to TikTok trend” and suddenly the story has a whole other meaning

Ironically, I’ve learned a lot of new words and I can directly thank Trump for that. Words like insurrection and stagflation….

But do the drivers speak English? /s

My bf and I went to see Dethklok and DragonForce. We both went to the restroom at the same time.

I walked right the women’s room, went and then joked around with the other women about how we walked right in I left the restroom pushed my way through crowds, saw my partner was still standing in line, went to the bar, got drinks, then hung out until he was done.

IT WAS SO WEIRD AND AWESOME.

Also the concert was awesome.
