  • During college I had a local bank account mainly used just to buy stuff I needed during those two years I lived in a small ass college town.

    Right before graduating my account was low since I wasn’t adding more cash to that bank. A subscription I thought I canceled ended up charging me $35 more than I had in my bank account. The bank workers told me on the phone not to worry about it since I have overdraft protection and I can just cancel the purchase later with no charge.

    They lied and I ended up getting charged an extra $35 for going over my balance. Still fucking hate that bank for making me deal with this during finals. Once the subscription was cancelled I still was in the negative because of the overdraft charges I was told wouldn’t be used on me.




  • Watch Next Generation or a few episodes of OG Star Trek & then seeing Wrath of Khan movie.

    Starting with Next Generation isn’t a bad option I think. The beginning is rough at parts but has some really good episodes in it. The series got much better after season 2. You could follow a skip list to skip over the episode that are deemed horrible on your first watch to make it all easier. It’s worth going back later to watch them though.

    Deep space nine follows up an event that occured in Next Generation, so that show might be confusing till you watch NG.

    Voyager is pretty much self-contained since that’s a big part of the story lol. Only thing that could be confusing would be a character that’s sorta important later on that is from NG. It isn’t much but just something to state if stuff like that bothers you.

    Enterprise is a pretty okay show I think. It’s the earliest show in the timeline and mankind’s first exploration. People don’t like it for some reasons that are completely justified but it’s never been anything to stop me from enjoying it. Might be best to watch this after others because it is different.

    OG Star Trek is a fun series to watch. Really episodic so you can find some of the best episodes and try just watching those. Watch 3/4 of the best (including the one was Khan) and then watch the movie “Star Trek 2 Wrath of Khan”.


  • That site really brought the worse out in people lol. I actually had a user curse me out in modmail because I removed a post of theirs for animal cruelty. Had to quit modding there because my blood pressure was getting worse each time I opened the app. Actually got my blood pressure taken last week for the first time since June and it was super low, so I will always now say leaving Reddit did it lol.

    Lemmy in areas such as this or your instance are some of my favorite places on this site. No stress or users who want to cause issues with others.

    It’s definitely not over dude.

    I caught it after one person infected over a dozen people at a birthday party last week.

    I spent over two days locked to a couch unable to handle any food with a 104 fever and now I’m mostly just dealing with the leftover sinus & upper respiratory infection it caused.

    And this is honestly one of the first covid posts I’ve seen here in a bit. No idea what you are talking about.

    Definitely need to get my flu shot too so thanks for that reminder. When I test negative again I will try and get both.

    Also just learned if I try blowing through my right nostril hard enough, I can blow air out of my left eye sinus passage. Covid has been a gift that keeps on giving.

    Be sure to get the new booster. I delayed getting it by a week and tested positive Saturday morning. Sinus + Upper Respiratory infection has been a fun thing to experience lmao.

    Worst part so far was last night when I couldn’t tell I was eating expired kimchi until I took a closer look. Lack of smell or taste can be tricky lol.
