    My transfer went through sometime in the last couple of hours. :arms:

    Status Description
    Your transfer request has been sent to your bank account. Please allow 3-5 business days for your funds to appear in your bank account. If you are a US worker and you encounter issues with your transfer request, please contact Mechanical Turk support. For non-US Workers, please contact the third party service provider you obtained your US bank account from for assistance.

    I am a bit confused by the last sentence. Doesn't apply to me, but you can get a third party service provider to get you a US bank account if you're not in the US then use it on Amazon?

    I'm glad this has been cleared up. I was quite confused earlier and had the notion to read the previous thread pages, but I got sidetracked.. or forgot. Lol

    Probably the HyperWallet thing for the 5 non US-workers that were invited in that program.

    They use the same copy/paste message for both, but payments for international workers are filed through Hyperwallet so they want those workers to contact HW instead of MTurk.

    Just random stuff about how new parents respond to their newborns and it made me think of you. Basically having a baby triggers physiological changes in new moms and dads.

    Crying babies affect mummies and daddies. Levels of gonad-juice in daddies is related to how much cries hit daddy's feels. Whatever the fuck prolactin is has something to do with it.

    > fathers reporting 3 h or more of daily childcare had lower T at follow-up compared with fathers not involved in care (P < 0.05).

    This is solid scientific evidence that if your wife wants you stay in shape, she has to shoulder the totality of the childcare responsibilities.

    tl;dr "Honey, you gotta take care of the baby so I can stay hot because science says so"

    I seriously wonder how much of that is losing 3h of your daily life (and we all know sleep, diet & gym are eating shit there) to the baby though.. all 3 of those things also correlate to T levels so... duh?

    High prolactin makes it hard to have erections, decrease energy, sex drive, muscle mass, strenght, and blood count.

    Problem solved. Just replace the dog with a baby and hope she doesn't shit in your outstretched hands.

    How much does your kid weigh? And how rapidly do they gain weight? Any chance you'd want to have another so you can do drop sets?


    Forreal I hope when you tell your wife how much I destroy your life, you pronounce my acronym name right
