I watched an obscure 80s horror movie on Netflix somewhere around 2012 or so. By normal movie standards, it was an awful movie.

The reason why this is bugging me is that I specifically remember being curious about the young actress and wondered if she ever did any other films. I remember researching and discovering that she went on to make appearances for TBN (Trinity Broadcasting Network) to speak about Christianity. I don't recall her doing any other films at all. I want to say I even faintly remember her possibly starting a workout regiment that was possibly Christian focused that she plugged on her interviews. It was all odd.

The movie was so forgettable and I barely remember any of it

For those of you that were able to get FFS, how did you afford it?

Parents gave you the money? Maxing out multiple credit cards at once? A personal loan with high APR? Selling your car? Saving over many years with a solid income?

Hi!

I'm a fairly educated SC2 fan, although now leaning much more casual. I know all of the game mechanics and races, but haven't watched a tournament in ages. I think the last time I watched a tournament from start to end was Blizzcon 2015.

As someone only just now tuning in after a very long absence, where are all of the Terran players like Polt, Innovation, Maru, Bomber, or really just any Terran players?

Hi all,

The third iPhone in a row that I have purchased has become nearly unusable after one year of normal use. (5s, 6, 6s)

All three phones worked perfectly up until about a year of use.

I did not upgrade my iPhone 6s to iOS 10 in order to protect my battery life.

After a 100% charge and two hours of normal use, it's not unusual for my battery to read 40%, where in which the phone will sometimes completely die at that level with no warning at all.

More curious is that it will always die at 40% if I have Uber open. Some Uber drivers have been pretty upset with me for not answering my dead phone.

Yes, I'm aware that apps, app refreshes, and location data uses battery.

I use the phon

Hi everyone,

I know a lot of us here are in Los Angeles.

Can you all please let me know which hospitals or doctors administer injections in the Los Angeles area? I'm sure there are a lot, so any amount of replies to help me choose would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you so much.

Hello lovely people!

I am so grateful for this message board. I wouldn't know where else to go to for a question like this.

Can you all help me create a list of organizations to contact regarding an illegal discrimination lawsuit? I live in Los Angeles, CA. I will definitely be calling the LA LGBT center. I've also heard of a gender center in Sacramento.

My job of 3 years, multiple raises, and bonuses fired me after I came out to my very religious boss as transgender and in transition. I'll leave the gritty, painful details for another day.

Shortly after, I contacted a ton of lawyers, and one woman who was an expert in discrimination took my case.

I'd like to call various LGBT frien

Hi lovely folks,

"Don't concern yourself with what others think"

That's the line that cisgendered men and women tell me when I am misgendered.

However, I wouldn't have transitioned, taken hormones, and went full time if I cared what people think. The last thing I am is nervous about what someone I don't even know thinks about me.

What is the correct mindset to have when someone misgenders you? Is it, psychologically speaking, normal for that to shake you and create a punch of anxiety and depression?

Thoughts that plague me after this occurs are:

  • Why did this happen?
  • What did I do wrong for this to happen when so many other people gender me correctly?
  • Is the person mean, dumb,

Hi all of you finance wizards,

If a primary loan applicant with great credit and decent income applies for a loan, but wants to allow another bad credit individual to cosign for the loan in order to build their credit and use their better income as leverage...

    1. Is that a detriment to the possibility of obtaining the loan, or a net positive?
    1. Would they stand a better chance to obtain the loan by NOT cosigning?
    1. Are primary cosigners weighted more heavily?

Example:

  • $15,000 loan / 3-5 years
  • Primary applicant: 790 score, $30,000 income
  • Cosigner: 590 score, $75,000 income

Thank you all so much for your help!

Hi all,

Are there any companies or institutions where I can hire a financial agent on a monthly retainer? I want to pay someone to walk me through a step by step, month by month process on what exactly I need to do in order to one day qualify for a personal medical loan.

I know I need to build my credit score, build my credit history, manage my debt to income ratio, and I do not mind paying someone ten times smarter than me to tell me what exactly I need to do, borrow, apply for, and buy in order to one day afford surgery.

My agent can be the parents I never had!

Yours truly, The Medical Loan Illiterate

Hi all,

There has been a few posts about this over the years, but I'm hoping there is more information out there now.

Can anyone please point me to a financial institution, either online or in person, where I can use my car as collateral and get a secured loan? Unfortunately, my car's value is only around $14,000, but the loan amount I need is more like $25,000. Does this mean I need to get two loans?

Do people skip the loan process all together and use multiple credit cards? I've never navigated a debt of this magnitude before, but I can pay the monthly fees if someone is willing to loan me the sum.

If anyone has had any luck at all with loans, please take the time to help me. I hope t

I've never commented or submitted to this sub before. I am primarily a Spurs and Grizzlies fan. I think I am fairly objective when it comes to commenting on this topic.

In watching the NBA Finals, it's so embarrassingly transparent how bitter Mark Jackson is about the Warriors. You can just feel his excitement when the Warriors lose. His compliments to the Warriors team or their players sound and feel so contrived.

I've noticed this for years, but it's getting worse, in my opinion. I couldn't help but find myself wanting to know what hardcore Warrior fans felt about this.

Hi there helpful friends!

I have been on HRT for 6 months MTF.

Unfortunately, I've not been able to find and endocrinologist that will help me get my blood tested for male and female hormones. I think by telling them that I am transgender, they get confused and nobody will tell me if insurance will cover my test.

Does anyone have any advice for me on specifically what to say or ask for so that my blood tests are covered by insurance? Otherwise, I've gotten estimates of up to $1,000 if my insurance doesn't cover the blood test, which isn't an option at this time.

I feel like I may need to possibly not mention transgender in order to advance and get an appointment granted to me that is cov

I'm blown away by the creation of these official mixtapes. The amount of footage that must be looked through seems like far too much for one person to sift through and organize. Moreover, the edits themselves are absolutely top notch. I'd love to give them a shout out while also learning about the process.

Hi all,

Now that president Obama is making leaps to allow transgender people to use the bathroom corresponding to their gender identity, why do you think president Obama and his leadership made no provisions in the Affordable Care Act (Obamacare) to help transgender people receive aid in paying for even the most typical of medical treatments and procedures?
