This choosing beggar wants someone to make him 90, clean,fully edited videos(3x day)in 30 days for "up to" $250” payment for the job.

Absolutely laughable! And I read through the comments, he's serious... And he's got the words "God Above All" at the top of his business profile! He was talking in the comments like his offer was a generous gift and a great opportunity, while real editors join in the conversation, commenting any editor who knows their worth wouldn't do that job for less than $5 grand..

First for me: Pilot did a headcount half way to destination, turned out there was an extra passenger on board

Domestic Canadian flight today, with a very informal boarding process, at the check in counter the lady told us, "oh yeah we don't do boarding passes, the pilot will just come up and call out the flight and just follow him to the plane"

Maybe contributing to what happened: our flight had been delayed for several hours due to weather.

Eventually the incoming arrives and the pilot comes out and says "who all is going to vancouver? Follow me" and a group of about 6 people follow him to the plane.

We all get seated, the pilot is talking with the ground staff because some mix-up has occurred and after about 5 more minutes four more ladies get on the plane. (This mix up probably also contributed)

We take off and during the 1 hour flight, after about 30 minutes, the pilot handwrites on a piece of paper "please wright your names" [sic] and hands the paper and pen to me sitting closest to the front.

I put my name down and pass it down and eventually the note gets passed back up to me with all the passenger names and I hand it back to the pilot.

I see him get a photo of the list, presumably to text it to the airline staff people.

When we land he says, "is there a ms. Xxx on board" and before he can even finish that sentence she says "yep I realized what happened".

Deplaned and met by ground staff at the destination airport who comes up and say they need to talk with her and they hustle her off to a taxi.

I overheard another passenger sitting closer to her who said she overheard that they were going to put her on a plane back to where we came from, and some mention of her luggage as well that had already gotten to wherever she was actually supposed to go.

Hope no one gets in trouble (but maybe sharpen up the check in, boarding/headcount process!), and that the extra passenger ended up wherever she needed to be in time!

Photo of the list, and the view I got enjoy on the ride.

Advice?

Hey, so these willy wagtails have decided to start building their nest right on top of this loose halloween decoration i've named Barbara. These wagtails have nested near my caravan before but never this close or on something so silly. What exactly should be my next move as

1: Barbara is quite unsturdy

2: It's right near my caravan door, so i get dive bombed and or used as a perch every time i leave or enter.

EDIT: I have tied Barbara's legs together to stop all the wobbling and i've put a pillow/cushion under her just incase she falls. As for the head issue I've gotten an old hat out of storage and will be using that when passing by. Thankyou all for the responses

I somehow got subscribed to Turning Point USA

The only thing I can think of is that my dad somehow got into my account

Edit: this has happened before with small, random channels but never big ones

I don’t think I misclicked on an ad, the closest I got was a Mormon ad

I’m 24F and my boyfriend 26M deleted 10,000 photos of us within days of our breakup and now wants them back.

I’m 24F, and my boyfriend is 26M.
We were together for 2 years, but we’ve known each other for 4 years.

We broke up recently, and within a few days of the breakup, he deleted every single photo of us. We were apart for only about 2 weeks before we got back together, and we’ve now been back together for 2 months.

The part that’s really bothering me is that he deleted around 10,000 photos. They weren’t backed up, so he knew he would never get them back.

His explanation was that he kept looking at the photos after the breakup, got stuck in a loop, and deleted them so he could stop going through them over and over again.

What also bothers me is that he didn’t tell me any of this for 2 months. He told me today and said he regrets it. Now he’s asking me to send all the photos back to him.
I know people handle breakups differently, but I can’t stop wondering: was it really that easy to delete 4 years of memories within just a few days?

Even if we had never gotten back together, I don’t think I would have deleted them. To me, those memories would still matter, even if the relationship ended.

If your partner deleted every photo from your relationship within days of a breakup, how would you interpret it?

Edit: For everyone asking how we have 10,000 pictures. We’ve known each other for 4 years and we’re also part of the same friend group. We’ve been on so many trips together, so these aren’t just pictures of the two of us. They’re group photos, random fun moments, activities, trips, scenery, food, literally everything. It’s basically 4 years of memories all in one place, not just 10,000 pictures of him and me.

Burritoz 4 Dayz

32 burritos, 16 chicken with a homemade fajita spice mix and 16 using a beef chili.

Mix of toppings in each one, guac, sour cream, array of cheeses, assortment of beans, lettuce, jalapeños, sweetcorn and a fried onion and pepper veg mix. Oh and a few different salsas.

The rice is a homemade Mexican rice.

Overall a lot of prep and not sure it’s worth it but definitely nice to have the freezer stacked! Will probably do burrito bowls the next time because the wrapping and defrosting is a pain.

Oh yeah, not enough counter space to wrap them so the floor was used. Lol it was clean
