I guess that doesn't really matter. What matters is that you actually have the card.

I tried to think of any potential legal hurdles regarding this law—assuming that’s even how it works, I guess I can't be entirely certain—but nothing came to mind.😁
(Though, to be fair, my brain isn't exactly firing on all cylinders today🙂)
I have no idea what the standard practice looks like in other European nations, but I assume it's probably similar, since we don't exactly just go rogue and do whatever we want here in the States.

As far as I'm concerned, it seems fine.🙂

It's just the Johnson baby shampoo—either the honey version, the regular one, or the wheat germ one. A few people used it to get rid of dandruff, and personally, it helped my hair look shinier and softer. I usually wash my hair twice a week. I suppose diet plays a role too. 👍

I used to use that stuff, too.
As far as dandruff goes, it actually did clear it up for me, but after a while, my hair started having other issues. My hair is thin and straight, and this stuff would make it look like a bowl of ramen noodles within just a few hours 😲 of washing. So, I had to stop using it...

slycrane94, is this some kind of "wish and greet" thing?🤣 He'll probably end up making this a top-tier thread too.😬

Yeah, there's Naomi too.
If I wasn't feeling lazy, I'd go ahead and register as Naomi myself.😬

(Poor slycrane94)

So, how many of us actually exist here?😲

😂 😂 😂
Lisa Moore61 and Lisa Moori🤣

My period started today.
It’s not even the cramps that get me; I just feel absolutely terrible.😢 😠
Does anyone know how to deal with this nausea? It hits me every single time. I used to get sick even when I was on the pill.😢

You can find monthly contact lenses in pretty much any local eyewear shop. There's a huge variety of brands out there, and I guess prices vary quite a bit depending on what you're looking for.

Even if they actually bring it back, it won't even happen.
And what happens then? I guess some "underground" bars will just pop up where smoking is allowed, and everyone will cram themselves inside anyway.

Richard Hernandez13 said:Special effects have been part of cinema since the very beginning.

That’s true, I guess, but for certain genres today—like sci-fi or horror—it’s practically becoming the entire movie.
Making a film has basically turned into just computer animation, with an actor occasionally popping up in the background.😁

Look, since DNA testing isn't exactly cheap, you could always start with basic blood typing. It’s obviously not as definitive as a DNA profile, but I guess in certain scenarios, it might be enough to rule out paternity immediately.

Look, I’m saying the same thing—they might extend that deadline, but probably not by much.

I’ve been wearing contact lenses for a little over a year now, and my prescription HAS FINALLY stabilized. Before this, it just kept climbing year after year.

Chloe Perez said:She’ll have to pay if she doesn't sort out her health insurance through Medicare within the designated window—like three months after graduation or one month after leaving school. It’s all laid out on the Medicare website.
The truth is, the stock market has nothing to do with this. Under the Constitution, you're entitled to free healthcare, but I guess that's contingent on following the specific deadlines they set.

I'm not entirely certain, but I think they might have scrapped those deadlines altogether.
I'll probably just ask her tomorrow.

So, I picked up some new contact lenses yesterday. They're 3-month disposables.
The staff told me that wearing them past the expiration date isn't necessarily a huge deal, though they made sure to say I'd be doing it at my own risk. 🙂
To be honest, the last pack of 3-month lenses I had ended up lasting about twice as long as they were supposed to. The result of that "smart" decision was that I spent five minutes struggling just to get them into my eyes because they wouldn't slide in anymore, and my eyes were pretty bloodshot—though, I should mention, that was only because I barely wore them at all.
With this new batch, I’m going to wear them regularly and toss them after three months. Maybe if I skip a week for some reason, I'll stretch it by a few days, but that's about it.

jadesailor14 said:but you have to pay into it, right?
registering for unemployment on time wouldn't really matter
I know there used to be cases where you'd get a lump sum for six months and then still owe a monthly amount
otherwise, you get nothing from insurance

You don't even have to pay anything.
Like I said, health insurance isn't tied to unemployment benefits anymore (meaning registration).
That part is true. I have a friend who works at Medicare as a lawyer; I actually asked her about this recently since I'm an outgoing student, and that's what she told me.

Health insurance isn't tied to the stock market anymore, so I guess you'll need to head down to Medicare to get yourself registered.

Carol Moore63 said:Comparing smoking to drinking is just idiotic. Do you think my liver takes a hit just because someone else is getting hammered?!

If you actually get cancer from secondhand smoke, I’ll personally hand over my own lungs to you. Maybe then you wouldn't have a problem.
btw, I was talking about the health consequences for the actual consumers.

I’ve had enough of this anti-smoking campaign.
Honestly, it’s about as infuriating as anything else you can deal with.
Meanwhile, alcohol advertising remains totally fine—you see beer ads everywhere, and they even promote it as a lifestyle choice, like having a drink before bed or during your downtime.🤮>
When it comes to health impacts, I guess smoking and heavy drinking are both issues, but maybe excessive drinking is actually worse.

It all feels like part of some massive conspiracy targeting major corporations.
And the funniest part? Despite all this, the number of smokers globally has actually gone up over the last few years.

Roger Allen3 said:that guy playing the "Hero" is just 🤣

At first, I couldn't even wrap my head around who you were talking about...🤔

Then it clicked. 😢 (God knows how they even found him🙄 )
