Creatine - It won't help you sleep - It will help when you don't get much sleep

I've struggled with poor sleep quality for over 10 years. Tried everything, nothing worked. When 10 pm rolled around, I would feel wide awake and fully energized...when it's time for bed. The following day, I would be in a haze and dragging myself along the entire day.

3 months ago, I started training with heavy weights and started taking creatine daily at 5 grams. Creatine is one of the most researched supplements and is 100% safe. Your brain and liver make it.

While it does not help with improving sleep, I found that the days when your struggling from lack of sleep or poor sleep quality, creatine has been absolutely great. No more heavy head or brain fog.

It has been a game-changer for me, when I have poor quality sleep (which is mostly every night).

I highly recommend it. Again, it is 100% safe. You could research online and specifically check out Dr. Rhonda Patrick on youtube. There are studies that show creatine significantly helps with both building muscle and cognitive function.

You might want to consider taking this supplement, if you're sleep deprived.

File on Hold - August not received

I applied for OW on July 15 (via MyBenefits) and was approved with a partial payment received, however 4 day go I received a File on Hold letter because I didn't submit my income (I have none).

Upon receiving the letter, I immediately sent my $0.00 earnings by "Message" and have not heard back.

The August payment was not posted and I checked my TD account today and no deposit.

I'm not even sure if I have a worker assigned to my file. Cannot find any details.

Any advice?

Renting a room in Scarborough - need advice

I recently moved into a 3 bedroom apartment on the top floor of a detached house, renting a room.

I am renting a single occupancy room and sharing kitchen/bathroom with 2 others. One is a female and the other is a male. I am not sharing with the landlord.

The landlord is an Indian family, living below. One of my roommates is Indian and not sure if there's any relationship to the landlord.

From the first day I moved in, the female roommate is playing loud music from 1:00 am to 5:3 am every single night. I complained to the landlord a few times and they just seemed to brush it off.

I signed an agreement, for living in a "shared environment". It appears to be month-to-month. I do not receive any receipts for rent payments, other than the first and last month agreement that was signed.

After the 4th complaint of loud music, they replied to move out.

Can I be evicted? Am I protected?

Would appreciate any advise.

Issues reactivating OW benefits

I started to receive OW from last December 25 - February 26.

In March I contacted my worker via mybenefits and asked to close my file, because I found work and it was closed.

My worker informed me that if I need to reactive my account within 3 months, just to send her a message.

Well, I was working with Prolific and making approx. $2500 per mo, with AI Evaluation.
Recently, Prolific onboarded over 200k new participants and my income was reduced to $10 per week.

I have sent several messages to my worker asking to reactivate my account, and did not receive any response. I was still in the 3 month window, just shy a few days.

I tried submitting a new application via online and when I submit my application, it just redirects to the login page.

There's no indication that my application was submitted or anything. I log into mybenefits and does not show any new application pending.

Any advice?

Onboarding - My ID verification has been rejected 6-7 times : (

Its all legit too.

I can get as far as the selfie " turn your head slightly left/right" then it's rejected.

Is it possible that I'm being rejected because I have a slight scruff/ beard? I do not have a beard on my ID photo, it's clean shaven.

Aether onboarding failed

I just finished the Aether exam (After spending 1+ hour) and was told it is under review and they will get back to me.

I just reloaded the dashboard, and under Current Projects > Aether it shows "Onboarding failed". The mouseover shows*"We are working to fix a technical issue that is affecting this project. Please check back later."*

Am I cooked?

I see some people posting they had 2-3 attempts after failing.

How's your dashboard today busy/slow?

I haven't seen it this slow since January. I keep track of all my submissions on a custom file and while Saturdays have looked slightly lower in the past 3 weeks, today is a new record low.

For all the miserable bastards here, please F/O and go get some air.

Would love to hear from the the intellect and classy people here only.

Slow day or busy?
