Too young for CAC?

I’m 27M with healthy anxiety. It started a few years ago when I was 24 I got blood work and had high ldl (167). I actually got tested a year earlier and it was 123, but didn’t think anything of it at the time. Diet has remained consistent all my life and always been very active and lean. Never smoked. Anyways, I’ve been hearing stories of people young having heart attacks and stuff. I read Peter attias book. I want to make sure I’m addressing everything with my heart health. Should I get a CAC or CT angiogram? Or is it pointless? Should I get full blood work first and determine it off that? I should note I changed my diet at 24 and my ldl has remained between 80-110 depending on how clean I eat since then.

Finding a job is impossible

Got my degree through VRE. I don’t understand how they don’t actually have connections to line you up with a job or something. Blows my mind. I’ve applied to hundreds of jobs and hear back nothing. I’ve tailored every resume to every job, and my resumes seriously look good. I meet all requirements and then some, but can’t even get an interview. I spend all day every day applying. Is there a better way to find something? I’m using LinkedIn heavily.

For everyone asking, my degree is digital communications and media

Cheapest MJF nylon 3D printing service?

I need a product produced and trying to find a quality, reliable, cheap service to produce it repeatedly over time. From what I hear JLC3DP is the cheapest, but is there any hidden fees? Any tarrifs or expensive shipping that’ll eat up the price? Is there a better alternative? I’m located in the US.

Where to find shirts like this that don’t show nipples?

I really wanna wear shirts like this to the gym but the only problem is for some reason my nipples show mad hard through these shirts and it looks like I got gyno. I have no idea why mine are built like that and other guys can pull this off perfectly flush. Super frustrating. Anyways, are there any brands that make compression shirts for the gym like this that have a thicker fabric around the chest to not show your nipples while still pulling off that tight, muscle accentuation?

What lighting for food photography?

I need some help. I have a photoshoot tomorrow for food photography and wanted to know what lighting I should buy. I have no lighting at all except for my smallrig rm120 light. I’m not sure if this will cut it. I need to buy something today, which means locally. Fb marketplace doesn’t have anything, but my local camera store has the amaran ray 60c and 120c. I tend to do more food photography in the future, so ideally want something that will be good enough for future shoots as well. Would the 60c be sufficient? It comes with the octa dome 30. I would be placing this as my main light and using a whiteboard or something behind it as a fill light. Anyone have any advice if this will work? Or do I need to spend more for a 120?

Smartmarket spam

Was doing research on vending machines and every thread had people mentioning smartmarket solutions. The comments seemed like actual people and not bots, and the accounts they came from had been several years old. Naturally, this looks like a legitimate comment based on that. But i noticed literally every single thread has the SAME accounts commenting about smartmarket solutions. The one user I showed in these photos even tries to act like he is looking at investing in smartmarket vending machines, yet he has several comments from months prior saying he already owns them. This is just a small example, but trust me every single account mentioning them have mentioned them in several other threads and it’s become obvious this is a marketing tactic. I’m not sure if the company is worth investing into or not, but just be aware of the deception they’re trying to spread.

Leaving VRE for GI Bill to pursue masters

I graduate with my bachelors at the end of this summer. the day after graduation I start right into my masters program. I will be using my GI bill for the masters program. I have not got my retroactive induction yet and was told that will happen after I graduate. I do not want to be in VRE anymore after I graduate, because it is an employment program and I got accepted into a top school for a masters program that will set me up with a great job opportunity. VRE has been a headache my entire time in the program, and I already know my counselor will not be on board with me going into more school without trying to find a job first. I’m under the impression I cannot be in both programs at once, so how will this all workout? Is it possible to end one and jump right into the other within a day? How do I get my retroactive induction?

Do you get full BAH doing MBV?

Considering the MBV (Master of Business for Veterans). Can anyone that’s participated in the program tell me if you received full BAH during it? Supposedly it’s a full time program, but since you only meet every other weekend it has me concerned whether I’ll be getting the full amount or not.

Options for filling in temples

I’ve been on fin for 2 years. Stabilized. However I have temples that I really want filled in. They’ve always been high, I’m not even sure if I’m losing hair or if they’ve always been this high as I remember. Anyways, I want to do a HT but I’m in school now and for the next few years with no breaks in between to get it done. I do NOT want anyone to see me with a shaved head or nothing like that. Do I have any options for filling in my temples while looking completely normal? I don’t mind looking weird for a week but nothing longer than that.

Can’t find a career

I’m an infantry veteran and just finished my degree in a field I have to interest in whatsoever (journalism). I thought I would like it but decided it wasn’t for me but I was too close to graduating to back out. I’m so lost. I have literally no interest in any career. I spend all day every day researching careers and everything turns me off. I just wish I had a career that I was interested in so I have something to work towards. At this point I’m just trying to make some decent money but I can’t even find a job. Nobody will hire me. Not sure why I’m making this post, guess I’m just looking for some advice from anyone that’s been in this position before. Thinking of just giving up and going back in the military.

Interested in rejoining as a warrant officer. I was enlisted infantry. Still in the IRR. Have a degree. Is it difficult and what are my options? Also would I be able to select my duty station? I got out as a specialist.
