Hi @Former-Member just got up from nap here.
was a bit of a mess with appts, both dentist and DES place changed times on me and dentist ended up 1 hr before other one. dentist was like need to pull your tooth out. I'm lik e wont be be time theyre like a you scared? .. then they saw the xray and are all ''oh need to book you in again, going to be messy as tooth large(think they said nothing to work off as last one on end (?)) but many cos huge tooth, huge roots, crap old surgeries, tooth likely brittle, so whill end up digging out small pieces like happened to me couple years ago. so they hit it and pulled at it so just constasnt dull ache atm. Getting done thursday lunchtime now

Hey @MDT so glad you wrote what you wrote.
I logged on today wanting to post about sadness re war in Palestine/Israel. And disgust re Biden and his cabinet warning. Morally there is a responsibility for more powerful sides to match the power of reaction or use of force. It is heartbreaking... again. Prayers to all suffering....
@TAB Thanks for tag and yeah... keep ticking those boxes
@Kyle1 That picture you posted @Former-Member was so gorgeous and evocative. Thanks both of you... for being you.

Hello @TAB I'm so sorry to hear this bad news regarding your tooth. I'm hoping Extras will cover it. Did they make any references to Afterpay options? Or something similar? I know the dentist around the corner offers a payment schedule. I live in a poor suburb and nobody can afford dentistry. I've just had a moderate expense. Did check out some on Facebook Marketplace. Nearly got ripped off. Told the lady I could get it for less on Amazon with no delivery fee. Have been making more headway with crypto today. I think I will be proficient at it in the future. I was put off to begin with but now its looking like its do-able. I'm getting there!

yeah, I upset someone on fb a while back by saying their gym gear cheaper new in Adelaide. they wanted their delivery money back too. not happening , der , been delivered, ok some theoretical value, but add on after taking 1/3rd of full retail price off for buying it. so many people try things on oh $3kg for my wieghts been in weather 10 years, same price new and shiny in shop with min 50% markup lol
yes they offered stuff. yes, payment would not go through on Hicaps for exam today, rang when got home .. check this.. payment not 'overdue', but account not current as of 2 days ago, so once every bill (few months) there is 1 week period at end where it is not overdue, yet no valid.. no reminders , no nothing. I was convinced I had paid it,and was Wrong..
anyhoo .. will get some money back , its not going to be standard tho re complications, so depends how they bill it I guess , ie as dift items or as the one and let me pay like 80 % lol
yeah, i wouldnt touch crypto if you paid me, thats me though. it is not guaranteed, actually as good as does not exist , people who trade it will lock door and keep it all, cannot believe what people do. System is pure speculation, not transferable , used by crims etc

Yeah its open for traceability on the blockchain but you can generate new Bitcoin addresses for each transaction so people can't identify you. Plus you can use an extensive seed phrase which nobody knows but you, its something like 12 words which is impossible to hack. You can keep your Bitcoins in a software wallet for everyday transactions and a hardware wallet for larger sums of money for security. But yeah the exchanges seem to be full of criminal activity particularly amongst privacy coins. I guess its like most things. I was put off to begin with @TAB but aiming to give it a go anyway
