  2. Grape
  3. Orange cream
  4. Sour strips
  5. Raspberry cream
  6. Strawberry bubbalicious
  7. Blue Sour patch
  8. Cherry limeade
  9. Original
  10. Strawbango
  11. Regular bubbalicious
  12. 7up
  13. Red sour patch
  14. Sour pink lemonade (not interchangeable, my first ever ghost flavor and nearly made me turn away from the brand.)

Advice for pursing ATC career

Hello! I’m 19M and I’m starting to consider being an ATC. I’m currently at a community college and have one year left and I’ll have my associates degree.

I found ATC very interesting, and I’m sure it is extremely stressful as well. I was wondering if anyone had and advice or suggestions. I was also thinking seeing if I can shadow and ATC and/or 911 dispatcher (which I know isn’t the same but has the same vibe) to get a better idea of what it’s like. I’m in KC so I’m sure there’s opportunities to be able to do so.

One of my downsides that I saw was not being able to choose where you work for a while. Thank you in advance!

How are Instacart audits done at your store?

Aisles Online employee here. I was just wondering how the instacart process was at other stores. Typically at ours it’s the runner doing the majority of the audit, but honestly it’s terrible. They come to our room and the runner has to bag it up and take it out to their car as well without any help from the shopper.

I ran the other day and because they want us to check audits and substitutes, I’m required to do that while having to take customers orders out and it’s such an inconvenience and time consuming plus I’m not able to get a break. It’d be nice if we had someone there just for audits but management don’t care about giving enough hours for that so they’ll place all the stress on the few people there.

How much should I allocate/where for long-term investment (not retirement)

Hello! I’m 19m and have been researching my all my finances. So far I have a RothIRA and have already maxed it for this year, and I contribute to a 401k match at my work. The person I spoke to at Fidelity mentioned setting something up for long-term investments but at the time I didn’t ask the best way to do so.

I currently have $8,500 in a Capital One HYSA. I’m planning on finishing my degree at community college, and I’m gonna stay at home for a couple of years working full time to build my networth so it’s not money I plan on having to use soon. I also have a good working car. If you were in my situation, how would you use it? Thanks in advance!

As Christians, how should illegal immigration be viewed?

Not here to get political lol. This has been a topic that I’ve kind of thought about and researched. I was just curious how others view illegal immigration. I’m somewhat divided on the topic as on one hand the Bible tells us to love our neighbors and treat foreigners as ourselves, but also as a country there needs to be laws. In a perfect world obviously it would be okay, but at what point is the line drawn?

Best way to not look at your RothIra?

Checking my portfolio

I know these questions get asked a lot but I’m gonna ask anyway lol. I’m 19 and I just maxed out my RothIRA and am choosing what to invest in at the moment. I use Fidelity and was thinking to put 80% FXAIX 15% FTIHX 5% FSSNX. I’m very new to investing so I’m still doing a whole lot of research. Thanks in advance!

Investment suggestions

Hello! I’m a 19 year old college student going into my second year of community college (scholarship paid for it). I’m planning on getting a full time job afterwards and continuing to live at home to better save my money. I’m getting into investing and have $15,000 in a HYSA at the moment.

I just opened up a RothIRA through Fidelity and transferred $3000 into it and am planning on putting the majority of it in FXAIX fund and maybe some in an international fund. I plan on contributing to it every month.

In addition, I’m thinking about just putting $3000 into a traditional brokerage account and doing the same strategy there. Does this approach to investing make sense? Thanks in advance!

Best way to invest/grow my money at 19

Hey there! I’m a 19 year college student currently attending community college going into my second year (had scholarship to pay for it). Right now I’m working part time and currently have $15,000 in my savings account. At the moment I’m still living with my parents and I don’t have any bills to pay besides insurance, reliable car.

I’ve been looking into investing my money, just because i know the sooner I get started the better chance for better financial stability there will be. It is all in my savings account which earns about 3% APY. I’ve looked into RothIRA (which still confuses me a little bit), stocks, CD’s, and was just curious what you would recommend?

I do plan on going to Fidelity to just talk to someone about it lol. Any help is appreciated!

Struggling spiritually.

I’ve honestly just been struggling spiritually lately. I think it’s mainly due to a lack of spiritual community right now.

I became a believer last summer and am the only one in my family. I’ve been going to the same church since then (large non-denominational). Most of the time I am just going by myself and so church honestly just feels like I’m going to get a spiritual lecture and then I leave without really interacting with anyone else. I know I probably just need to get myself involved more but it just hasn’t really worked with my schedule.

I do have two mentors who disciple me but one is on a mission trip and the other just got married, so he’s got a lot to deal with lol.

It’s just hard cause I feel so spiritually alone right now.

Any advice or encouragement?

Did I have the correct process for calculating CAPE?

Hey everyone, so currently I’m trying to learn more about meteorology.

I was using this model sounding for Wednesday to do my own calculation for CAPE. Obviously a lot of it is based on estimation, but I was curious if the method I used was the correct way. I had ChatGPT teach me sooo 😭

I was using the SFC

I first wrote down the decibel levels ranging from the LFC to the Equilibrium Level. Then I found the difference in temperature between the air parcel and environment for each level. Then from there I got the Buoyancy Average using the formula of 9.8(Tp-Te/Te).

And then I found the depth of each layer and multiplied that by the Buoyancy average. Then I added each one up to get a final CAPE of 4729 j/kg which seems pretty close the sounding calculation.

Just wanted to check my work. Thanks in advance!

Starting to seriously consider meteorology as a career

Hey! Community college student here. I took a meteorology class last semester of school, and have seriously loved it. So I’m now really thinking about it as a career.

At the moment, I’ve currently contacted weather station offices to see if they have internships/job shadowing opportunities to figure out what it’s actually like as a job. I’m also going to apply for an internship at one of my local news stations.

I know meteorology is a lot more than just severe weather and weather watching, so I will probably try to take some python classes and classes involving AI since I’m sure that will be a big part of it.

I was just curious if anyone has any advice or anything that they wish they had done.

I may also volunteer with my cities emergency management, and was wondering if that would help any with my resume. I’m not doing it just for the resume, I do want to help people out as well lol.

Thank you so much in advance!

I hate sinning

Title pretty much explains it. I’m a believer and I know it’s not my good works that will save me, it’s faith in Jesus Christ alone, but man when I sin it is so annoying. I guess it’s just a constant reminder why I need Jesus in the first place. Lust is absolutely the worst

At times I just wish God would take away my desire to sin.
