Super_Slash 01/22/25 4:19:18 PM #1 | Our freezer is nearly empty, I'm sitting here hungry, and the only thing open nearby are gas stations which I have to uber to...and I don't have money for that or food. Fuck. |

Super_Slash 01/21/25 2:15:17 AM #7 | Senta posted... Nah. I just looked at the weather for where its all snowing at there, and honestly, those cats will be fine. It's not getting THAT cold, and cats are good at finding shelter and hunkering down for a couple of days.A 9 degree wind chill is pretty cold. Idk what temps they can survive in, but that's good to know. |

Super_Slash 01/21/25 12:46:31 AM #3 | I'm more concerned for the cats we have outside, and groceries. The cats aren't ours but they are GOING to die out there and I can't keep them. |
Topic | Going to be snowed in for the first time |
Super_Slash 01/21/25 12:27:09 AM #1 | Dammit. I feel two ways about it because living in Louisiana I almost never see snow, and this will break records; the biggest blizzard on record here since 1895. We could get up to eight inches, which is INSANE for Louisiana. However, this will delay our moving plans by about a week probably. And we won't be able to get food at all until probably Friday. Crazy. |
Topic | How long do apartment applications typically take? |
Super_Slash 01/20/25 7:26:05 PM #1 | It's been about a week now and we still haven't heard anything. What goes into apartment applications and background checks? Like what do they look for exactly? |

Super_Slash 01/19/25 5:42:00 PM #1 | It better be based on the Dreamcast version! That game was fucking great, and I need to get $20 or however much it is so I can buy it. |
Topic | Watching all of Gintama for the first time |
Super_Slash 01/19/25 4:25:28 PM #1 | There's very few filler episodes, so I might not even skip them, plus it should blend in seamlessly with the overall theme of the show. My friend has been telling me it's really good, and so far it's pretty fun. I can't imagine how a story like this can go on for 300+ episodes, but we'll see! I like the characters so far. |
Topic | More apartment questions |
Super_Slash 01/18/25 12:12:44 AM #1 | So let's say we meet all the requirements on our apartment application. The situation we are in is that we technically DON'T have the money for the deposit yet; my girlfriend wants to wait to see if we're approved before selling this trailer. But if we don't technically have the money yet but can get it by say, Tuesday or Wednesday of next week. We are currently still in the queue. So I'm wondering if we're gonna be caught in a weird place where we meet the requirements, but don't get approved because the money isn't literally in our hands at this very moment. How does this work? Do landlords give you a certain time to move in and pay the rent/deposit or what? |
Topic | Is this considered illegal? |
Super_Slash 01/17/25 3:19:14 AM #7 | Kai_Laguna posted... SSI also lets you work but you are limited to something like $2000 in income a month.She makes roughly 1800 a month. Maybe 1.6k, from her work specifically. |
Topic | Is this considered illegal? |
Super_Slash 01/17/25 2:42:59 AM #1 | My girlfriend has been collecting from social security since she was 11. She's been working full time for 3 years and they keep "red flagging" her every now and then, as in, sending a letter in the mail to confirm or deny the jobs she's worked since she last updated them. A quick Google suggests collecting SSI while working is not illegal, but your benefits will be reduced depending on how much you make. She's been hiding from them and intentionally not updating them because she doesn't want to lose it, which is what I think might be a gray area. We need this income to get an apartment, and I never know from one month to the next if it's just going to be pulled. |
Topic | Was Supernatural worth watching all the way through? |
Super_Slash 01/17/25 12:44:40 AM #5 | [LFAQs-redacted-quote] I actually thought the show got a lot better after season 5. I'm glad they continued. |
Topic | Was Supernatural worth watching all the way through? |
Super_Slash 01/17/25 12:37:55 AM #1 | The show blew me away. I'm not much of a TV show person (anime is more my thing), but Supernatural is amazing. Almost every single episode was at LEAST a 7/10. That's quite an accomplishment. |
Topic | Which television series benefits most from removing one whole season? |
Super_Slash 01/17/25 12:36:21 AM #62 | vycebrand2 posted... My answer is supernatural season 7. Its only good for Deans endless "Dick" jokesThis too. Season 7 SUCKS, and it has the worst villain out of any arc in the show. |

Topic | How likely are you to be approved for an apartment if |
Super_Slash 01/17/25 12:04:19 AM #5 | Glob posted... What do you mean by approved? Apart from student housing, every place Ive ever rented, and Ive rented quite a few, just wanted a deposit and first months rent up front.There was a $60 application fee for the apartments we want, which we paid for already. |

Super_Slash 01/16/25 11:56:16 PM #1 | You have a lot of bills you're collecting on, but you exceed the required income amount and can pass a background check? This is really, really important for my future in the next couple weeks and I have so much anxiety that we won't get it. |

Super_Slash 01/16/25 2:00:47 AM #3 | Do cartoons count? Anything after the Exodus arc in TMNT 2003 needs to be cut. The series ended with Exodus Part 2. |
Topic | Maybe one day I'll have some semblance of peace again |
Super_Slash 01/16/25 1:07:52 AM #1 | I don't know how things could be looking up but also down at the same time; at the moment, the bad stuff still far outweighs the good. I still do nothing all day but loaf around and worry. I can't even get into a single video game. We might be moving which is huge, but the process of getting there is proving to be a pain in the ass, and we kinda need out of here by February. First we had to get the title to the trailer to sell it, now we have to find a buyer. And we just applied for the apartments we want yesterday. Does social security count as a valid source of secondary income? In that case we should easily qualify. |

Super_Slash 01/13/25 4:48:04 AM #7 | ai123 posted... Is there an office on site? Any signage?There is a vacant office. The only documentation I have is a notice she put on everyone's door back in September but the phone number doesn't work. |

Topic | How do you get ahold of your property manager? |
Super_Slash 01/12/25 11:24:47 PM #1 | We are trying to sell the trailer and her phone number doesn't work. The previous owner doesn't know how to contact her, either. Surely there's some kind of chain of command somewhere? We live in a trailer park. |
Topic | Might as well talk about Metaphor Refantazio |
Super_Slash 01/10/25 11:08:23 PM #30 | For easy money just use Merchant and go to a low level dungeon, find a magla crystal and kill all the spawned enemies for like 1500 gold per kill. |

Super_Slash 01/07/25 3:01:27 AM #1 | My job prospects down here are almost hopeless. My girlfriend owns the trailer, which is the silver lining here; she does not own the land, but she could still sell the trailer and probably get at least 2k on it, enough for a down payment on an apartment. Plus tax season is coming. Current situation:
What I really want is to just fuck it and move right away, and use income tax money to keep us steady for the first month until we find something, but my girlfriend would have to quit her job to do that, and she doesn't want to; she is trying to get a store transfer, but there is no telling if it'll ever actually happen, and I've had enough of random shots in the dark. But I know we need to do it. This is a mess though. I'm trying to stay strong but even this plan seems very shaky. Any advice? Should I try to convince my girlfriend to just quit and move (she gets about 1.2k in social security once a month), or is that a terrible idea? It probably is. =/ |

I don't think this game is supposed to be confusing. Am I just not paying attention? Idk. I'm 3 hours in and haven't even gotten through the Kamiki Village portion of the story. |

Super_Slash 01/06/25 7:42:56 PM #1 | I just finished my six training courses for Literably, and based on what they said in their instructions page, I should have passed with flying colors and should get hired. January through February is one of their prime times for new hires. I'm curious if anyone has ever actually made decent money off of these. |

Topic | Are crisis prevention lines useful at all? |
Super_Slash 01/05/25 4:18:49 AM #19 | TeaMilk posted... I called one recently (in the US) for my gf. They let you to talk on the phone with a therapist, and optionally could send out a crisis team to your location to de-escalate or help figure out a safety plan. They also called the next day to check how things were going, and were able to give me some resources for outpatient psychiatric services. They seemed to genuinely want to help, and did not at all jump to involuntary commitment. I think they would only do something like that if you express actual intent to threaten your own life or othersThe de escalation and safety plan stuff is actually pretty cool. Okay I think I'll give it a shot as soon as I can. |

Super_Slash 01/05/25 2:21:59 AM #1 | I want to try one but I never do because I don't want to be thrown in a damn hospital. If anything that's just going to increase my anxiety and make everything worse. Or is their use purely to throw you in a psych ward? |

Super_Slash 01/04/25 6:09:02 PM #1 | I was on the edge of my seat for the entirety of the Last story as a kid. Then you get a cool space battle with two Super Saiyans teaming up with the enemy to stop a greater threat, which is one of my favorite tropes. And Live and Learn blasting just sealed the deal for me. It was grand, epic shit when I was 9. |

Topic | Lol fucking Nintendo don't even offer a trial for the switch online expansion |
Super_Slash 01/04/25 3:44:22 PM #25 | rick_alverado posted... While this point is correct, Donkey Kong 64 isn't a good example, as they don't fully own it. It contains the arcade game Jetpac, which is owned by Rare and thus Microsoft. There are other Rare games on Switch Online, so it could still happen, but it's not solely up to Nintendo.DK64 ended up on the Wii U just fine though. Like what is taking so long? |
