I'll quote my comment elsewhere: "BNPL providers are held to far higher standards than Credit Card, Personal Loan, or Payday Loan companies. I'm not sure I understand the HN addict…

BNPL providers are held to far higher standards than Credit Card, Personal Loan, or Payday Loan companies. I'm not sure I understand the HN addiction to attacking them. Unlike all …

I’m down nearly 30lbs in 3 months through intermittent fasting. Here’s my M-F routine : 7am: weigh myself, text results to my father Breakfast: Nothing, but I drink a flat white ju…

Less powerful than you’d think. If you’re familiar with the zones of popularity of his main newspapers, you’d see that they correlate very nicely with Labor-held electorates. (Just…

Don't forget that the translator knows just as well as you or I what the Spanish means - he also understands what it means when you take a child to see something - an expression th…
