Knitting is super fun. I used to do it every day until I started my masters. I keep thinking I should restart this hobby. As long as you don’t buy ridiculously premium yarns, it’s super cheap too. I used to find boxes of yarn at yard sales or thrift stores.
Every big web site in 2024 looks like the sites people warned you not to visit in the 90s
It’s weird for me. I get the cookie bullshit in reader view, but if I refresh it then I see the article. This happens with uBO enabled or disabled, either way.
I was thinking the same. I knew a Burger King like this. Perhaps surprisingly, it was one of the cleaner, more well-maintained BKs I’ve visited.
Mario lacks any tools, huh? Just got to raw dog it.
So those sources say it doesn’t stay on your credit report, but I’m not really concerned about that. My credit score is consistently dogshit, and I’ve given up on it. I don’t really care about my credit score at all.
What I’m concerned about are legal issues, wage garnishment, and other things that would directly affect me and harm me. If I just don’t pay, wouldn’t they seek legal action against me? I’m almost certain they would, and I’m pretty sure that doesn’t change after 7 years.
Edit: I think I misread your comment. I see now that it does say “credit report.” For some reason, I misread that and thought you were saying the debt just disappears. So really, that wouldn’t help me much at all. I still need to be terrified of going to the doctor. One expensive trip could ruin my life.
I wish I would have known this when I thought my life was over after having appendicitis the one year of my life I couldn’t afford insurance. Thanks for letting me know. I’ll keep it in mind.
I’ve got to say there’s no way my debt would ever be less than $1k though. I’m pretty sure my deductible is $5k, but I’ve also given up on the whole credit score thing. I always get emails that it’s dropped or whatever, and I’m just numb to it at this point it’s just background noise
With all the absurd turns YouTube and Google have taken, I’ve been looking at this for five minutes trying to figure out if this is a shitpost
Go pound sand
Pounding sand isn’t enough anymore. We need heads to roll.
What do you mean by this? They just erase your debt after 7 years? Are you sure?
Honestly I could be remembering wrong. This was 2020 and 2021, and I haven’t been back to the clinic since December 2021 when they charged me $200 out of pocket for just an office visit. My whole point posting that comment isn’t that I have celiac, but rather that I can’t afford this shit.
I’d rather die than have collections on my ass again
it’s better from the former system in the way that walking on glass is better than being on fire
Unless you were unemployed or extremely poor, in which case there’s no difference
They did some labs and gave me my diagnosis. The way it was explained to me was that they wanted the colonoscopy to check for things like scarring and so forth.
To be clear, I’m not a medical professional, so my attempting to answer “Why would they…” is pretty fruitless. I have no idea; that’s why I was seeing my doctor lol
Oh I’ve had the diagnosis for a few years, and I’ve totally adhered to the dietary restrictions I was given. If I so much as question whether cross contamination may have taken place, I don’t eat the food.
I’m pretty well stable now and no longer shitting myself. But I know I’m at greater risk of things like colon cancer, which is something that my family has a history of.
My insurance would “cover” it in that it would go towards my deductible, but that’s still thousands of dollars, and we had to buy a furnace this year because ours died. I’m thinking about going and having it done in Mexico. I have in-laws there.
Edit: They did more than just blood tests. I’m not going to post all my lab results here obviously, but I can tell you I took shit samples there more than once, and amid all these tests all I could think about was the cost.
I’m supposed to have a colonoscopy because of my celiac
This is why I don’t
I think the YMCA still might have good terms, but I haven’t checked. That’s where we used to go.
If you’re using your real name I would imagine they’d send the debt to collections which would cost you even more when your credit score tanks and you try to buy a car or house.
Probably important for people to know, but I doubt it would be terribly impactful, and I’m so done playing their games. There’s always something that hurts my credit score anyway, so I just assume I’ve already lost this battle before it began.
My husband is a roller skater! I always think people think we’re an odd couple, with my board and his skates on the trails
Yeah, that’s why I’m alright sticking to the exercise I can access for free: walking, cycling, longboarding, calisthenics…
I feel like I’m in better shape now than I was when I had an actual gym membership
You’ve also described why I tend to avoid a lot of subscription based services.
This is great
