Fun to know that it’s still absolutely screwed.

Playing Salem The game.

No, not “town of salem”

Player base is only like 1000, the odds of getting one of the few hundred people in the world that could out play me would be crazy.

“Oh that has funny jokes!”

“Oh… they were the only good jokes.”

You’re so right and never thought of it like that! If you Google and find a new service you’ve never heard of, we’re expected to give up our soul in a heartbeat! Even for a new email so many are like: First name Last name Phone number for dual authentication Install this app for dual auth Birthdate!

Like dude, there are a lot of services that just that information alone is enough to call in and take my account. It’s so scary how common that is.

A game I play uses PayPal as the payment processor, and pay pal decided to pay this specific company I had to upload the front and back of my ID.

Just… ugh.

Oh man see I knew i was missing stuff! My gf wanted more if an explanation of why I didn’t love a vpn but I couldn’t really explain more than “if you leave sign pots everywhere that you live here, probably don’t need to worry about bread crumbs”

True! Lots of wonderful comments here.

Someone else makes a complicated tools for teeth doctors to record what they do and helps them keep track of how much money they are owed.

I teach people to use that tool, and fix it when it breaks. Usually both because I’ll try to explain how to do something and realize it’s broken half way through

That’s cheap???

Dear heavens, I didn’t realize some places were that rough.

That sounds cheap as an American! Is it affordable with how much money Lithuainians make?

Oh well isn’t that swell, add on some of those people probably have loans for their mobile homes and can’t afford to move them, and we get what we have.

Trailer parks saw how much money normal land lords were making, and were like “What’s stopping up from raising rent for no reason as well?”

Rule 1 of affordable housing:

No narcs!

When I was little (just 29) you would hear a price like that for the mini mansions up on the hill.

I can’t imagine how absurd it seems for people old enough that they bought their first home for 20k back in the 70s.

Good reminder to never move their.

I’m not saying I would kill to have my mortgage be 16% of my take home pay.

But if the military could guarantee it, id consider it.

For more fun, calculate how much money you would have to make to meet the rule of having your mortgage only cost 30% of your take home pay!

To buy a home with a 2k mortgage and keep that rule, you’d need a TAKE HOME pay of nearly 80k, so easily needing 6 figures gross pay to afford these two homes while still keeping this rule.

Ugh, yeah. At least the crazy “we are gonna fix it” docs keep trying. My sister’s crazy doc laid out a 6 step plan where the last two points were “feeding tube” and “build you a new stomach with a gastric bypass”. The feeding tube worked, which made him confident replacing her stomach would fix it.

Compared to the doctors who just keep prescribing the same meds and saying to eat lots of fiber. Like do you think I’d be 50 visits and 6 docs in if fibercapsules helped?

Fingers crossed you find yourself a doctor with a unique thought that isn’t gonna give up so easy!

How people hold weight is wild.

I’m curious if you’ll get a crazy “we’re gonna fix this!” doctor!

That’s how my sister got a gastric bypass to treat her gastroparesis! (It worked, because her stomach got fired.)

Then another person I know somehow had the ability to vomit removed?? (Instead of vomiting they are now just nauseous all the time and can’t vomit)

Like the way they treat stomach issues is truly WILD. They just don’t know what is going on with that organ do they?

Do you not know what to say when people compliment your weight loss?

For no reason any doctor could tell my body decided I needed to be in extreme pain whenever I ate solid food.

So I went from 230-130, and people will be like “wow you look great!” And it’s just like “thanks! My body has betrayed me and I’m very confused!”

Luckily I got some medication that let’s me eat rice and veggies.

Fingers crossed for you! Maybe they’ll just evict your stomach!

Never thought about it, but there is cheese sauce that whenever I open it up, it gets used until its gone like instantly. Every meal is rated on if the cheese sauce can be used.

Basically any sauce for me. I open a jar of pasta sauce to use part of it? Every meal I consider if I can use it.
